GFB VTA Performance Atmospheric Dump Valve - Ford Focus ST/RS MK2 & Focus ST MK3
The GFB VTA Performance Atmospheric Dump Valve combines the proven performance benefits of GTB's ground-breaking DV+ but with atmosphere venting.
Delivers an aggressive blow-off sound, improved throttle response, boost recovery, as well as superior boost holding & reliability in extreme conditions.
The VTA shares the successful DV+ design philosophy: “Keep what works, replace what doesn’t”.
Retains ECU control and the solenoid from the factory diverter to ensure the fastest possible response time, without the added and unnecessary cost of replacing the solenoid like some brands do.
The weak part of the factory diverter has always been the plastic valve mechanism – this is the part we replace. The VTA features CNC machined billet components that last a lifetime, and we also change the valve operation method for better performance. The factory diverter valve can only operate in two states – open, or closed. When it opens fully at low boost, or during a partial throttle lift mid-corner, it causes increased lag and a noticeably non-linear boost transition.
GFB pioneered the use of “pilot operation” in the DV+, which works by re-purposing the factory solenoid to control the pressure behind the piston rather than the piston itself. This allows the solenoid stroke to be much shorter, speeding up the response time and increasing the actuation force. More importantly, it allows the piston to open and close progressively in response to the amount of boost pressure present, which smooths boost transitions and reduces the lag caused by the factory diverter valve.
It is this design philosophy that makes the GFB VTA not only the best performing blow off valve solution, but also the best value on the market.
