Dump valve

Postby peterg » Thu Mar 17, 2005 9:23 pm

Whilst at the local Renault garage picking up parts today, one of the mechanics told me that the closer the dump valve is to the turbo the less lag it would suffer and that it would be beneficial to move it as close as possible.....never heard that before!!! Can anyone confirm or refute this????
