Performance - Mercedes A Class (W177 / V177) 2018-Present

Designed specifically for the AMG A35 enthusiast Forge Motorsport are proud to release another Mercedes performance enhancement available in either atmospheric or recirculating versions. Developed and manufactured in Great Britain this product comprises of a 100% billet piston solenoid operated valve that integrates seamlessly with the OEM electronics resulting in absolutely no fault codes, no check engine lights, and no detriment to the performance of the vehicle in any way. These valves are engineered to remedy the failure issues experienced with the OEM solenoid valves when the diaphragm or plastic piston fails which would effectively result in a boost leak. With the A35 AMG gaining popularity within the tuning industry the forge valves are a must, they ensure that reliability and performance are the number one priority, further allowing the tuning of your A35 AMG.  Forge valves use full billet alloy construction with a piston based internal design that provides significantly improved reliability, lightning fast response and will withstand additional tuning upgrades. We recommend that you give yourself around 3 hours for the installation of this Forge product.   Please Note: In line with our policy to constantly review, revise, and improve our product range, the appearance of the product you receive may differ from the one advertised.

The T9388 is the latest addition to the DV+ range of diverter valves from GFB (Go Fast Bits). It is designed as a complete drop-in replacement for the OEM diverter valve in late-model Mercedes vehicles. Unlike the earlier generation diverter valves manufactured by Pierburg, the newer AMG-branded OEM valves cannot be disassembled and incorporated into a DV+. Therefore, GFB developed the T9388 with a low-profile integrated solenoid as a complete replacement for both the AMG and Pierburg diverter valves, enabling a hassle-free installation with no clearance issues. Like all valves in the DV+ range, the new T9388 delivers the following benefits over the OEM diverter valve: Improved boost holding Sharper throttle response Faster boost recovery after a gearshift or brief throttle lift Unrivalled longevity, backed by our Lifetime Warranty Improved Boost Holding Since electronic OEM diverter valves first appeared in the mid-2000s, there have been many revisions over the years in an attempt to address reliability issues. Whilst the latest generation of OEM diverter valves has become more reliable, there is always a performance trade-off due to their operational method and plastic construction. When GFB engineers performed boost leak testing on the OEM diverter valve in a C63S, they found the leak was significantly larger than in earlier generations. This excessive leaking is due to the emerging trend of manufacturers mounting diverter valves remotely on plastic intercooler tanks rather than directly on the turbocharger. A plastic valve mechanism closing onto a plastic seat resulted in the largest OEM diverter valve leak we’ve seen yet at 28L/min at 1 Bar of boost. Even with the Viton face seal (featured on all DV+ pistons), the plastic OEM seat face was found to be so uneven that it was impossible to achieve a reliable seal. The T9388 successfully addresses this issue by incorporating an integral piston seat machined into its body. This design ensures a proper seal, even on uneven plastic OEM seats. Sharper throttle response, faster boost recovery after brief throttle lift Factory electronic diverter valves are binary in operation – they’re either open or shut. Your throttle, however, isn’t. When you make small throttle adjustments, the binary operation of the factory diverter results in abrupt changes in power delivery, which is the very definition of poor throttle response. The DV+ patented “pilot actuation” system allows the piston to open and close progressively, thereby smoothing the power delivery during throttle modulation, and ultimately improving throttle response. Unrivalled longevity, backed by our Lifetime Warranty The combination of precision manufacturing, attention to detail, and robust materials mean the DV+ will last a lifetime. So does the warranty!

However, venting to atmosphere gives it the signature blow-off sound, whilst the DV+ keeps things quiet. Competitors' products for the same vehicles that make sound (i.e. BOV "Spacers") typically retain the performance deficiencies of the factory diverter valve, delete the ECU control, or require frequent maintenance and rebuilds. The VTA on the other hand is the complete package - performance, fit, reliability, and sound! Like the DV+, GFB’s VTA range of BOVs utilise GFB’s proven TMS Technology to ensure rapid boost recovery on gearshift and optimum throttle response, as well as superior boost holding. However, where the DV+ and the VTA range differ is what they do with the vented air. VTA BOVs vent to atmosphere to make the signature turbo blow-off sound, where the DV+ recirculates the air to keep it quiet. Each valve in the VTA range is designed specifically for the applications we list them for, ensuring the best fit and performance. Most of the VTA range are designed for use on cars with solenoid type factory diverter valves, and in those cases the VTA kit will retain the solenoid and ECU control. Like the DV+ though, it replaces the weak factory valve internals to ensure strength and reliability, especially in high boost applications. Other versions of the VTA are designed for use on cars that do not have any kind of factory fitted diverter valve. Vehicle manufacturers have deleted the troublesome solenoid type diverter valve from some of the newer models, but this leads to turbo compressor surge which can be taxing on the turbo in the long run. The VTA valves for these cars are designed to re-introduce the function of a diverter/blow-off valve to help protect the turbo in the long term and provide a blow-off sound.
