he main feature of the SABER-EDV is the simulation of the DUMP VALVE PSSSSST sound. The main benefit being that you won't have to spend out on a big turbo conversion. The SABER-EDV WILL NOT increase your insurance premium.
Roll Eyes

What next? Roll Eyes

This must win the prize for the ultimate sad addition to a vehicle.

Made me smile I must admit!

£149 fitted! Bargain! Car goes no faster, yet sounds like it has a high pressure Air leak!  Roll Eyes Undecided

Some people eh?

ok so i could goto my local DIY store, buy a small pressure machine thingy (very technical) and hang it out the window, total cost maybe £30 tops
But i should pay a company to fit a system that as you said Paul makes it sound like a preassure leak. What could it possibly do to benifit anyone?

Absolutely sod all, except make the muppet driving his 1100cc Saxo etc feel like he has 400BHP under his right foot, until a Milkfloat overtakes him!  Grin

A pointless conversion, then agan, a well done, modified car is an extremely rare thing.

A throwback to the days dumpvalves were fitted to crazy boost pressure Sierra Cosworths, without the dumpvalve, the engine would have literally exploded when the driver changed gear. - Trucks use the same device, most dumpvalves are actually hybrids of truck dumpvalves!

An essential addition to a Turbocharged car.

No doubt, the idiot buying that kit has'nt considered he'll be making all the right noises, but, going just as slow.....

Theres a phrase to describe them, but, politeness permits me.  Wink

I couldn't think of a sadder way to blow 149 big ones - If you want a fast car with a turbo & dump valve THEN BUY A FAST CAR WITH A TURBO & A DUMP VALVE IN THE FIRST BL**DY PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Or at least wait until you can afford one.

& whilst i'm on a rant - please don't put a roll cage in your Vauxhall Corsa - they're not mandatory for the McDonalds Drive-Thru.

Sorry about that guys - you got one of my pet peaves there Scania.
