Hi guys,

You all know what this looks like so I havent taken any pics. It has been on my car for about 4000kms.

I can dig up the instruction manuals but I dont have the box anymore.

Located in the Hills District or St Leonards during business hours.

Can ship at buyers expense.

$50

Thanks!

Hi GrizzleyGTi,

Best way to install this is to jack up the car, take off the front drivers wheel and the lining behind it.

From there you unscrew the standard DV and sandwich the Forge DV spacer between the two. I should still have the printout directions, otherwise I can source you the PDF version

Thanks!

You don't have to take off the wheel or liner. I changed my DV on the weekend & it took all of 5 minutes once the car was up on axle stands.

Is a DV spacer like a DV? :S confusing lol

APR don't sell the Forge DV anymore, they use some new revision from VW, installed costs $200.

Essentially it just makes a bit of a BOV sound, (quite a weak BOV sound)
It is not quite as loud as the ones you hear from those Japanese turbo cars.
There is no performance gains or losses from the DV Spacer, all it does is make a bit of sound

A DV spacer is sandwiched inbetween the DV
