Im about to replace my dvalve for my 2008 R56S and im in between either the
1. new updated stock dv
2. the GFB T9352
which of the two would you choose to make the replacement and why?

 

Gfb and never have to replace it again.

 

I am on Gfb.

It is very well build piece of equipment. Potentially never need to replace it again. I would go with Gfb after looking at the original build.

 

You guys that have the GFB, let me know... what is the difference that you actually feel while driving with the GFB, compared to the stock dv?

 

holds boost up better between shift, I love mine.

 

The Forge DV is the fastest DV out there, the GFB is durable even on higher than stock boost levels. The GFB still uses the slow stock DV via electronic signal sent by the ECU. My turbo is much more responsive than my perfectly fine stock unit, I'll never go back.

 

I dont understand which of all you prefer and why?

 

According to his signature he has the forge and finds it quickest responding. I had the forge which I will end up selling, only because the boost tap it uses off the inlet manifold is not compatible with the aem intake when trying to fit it.
