HI
which divert Valve is best for the RS6, and what would you recommend if you're going to change from the original.

Covered before in here... Stff
Cue the diaphragm vs. piston debate. I have the Bosch sport valves that hoppen sells. Happy with them, basically the oem design with a slightly stiffer spring and a deal at $60 per.

When i bought mine it had forge 007 w/ yellow springs. I put the APR R1 valves on and they honked. APR is replacing the springs so it won't anymore, and sending them back to me. It seemed that the APR's responded quicker, which felt better. But I've also heard people race about the Bosch 710N upgraded valves( had them on my s4, no problems). Hope that helps.

What is APR replacing the springs with? Mine and everyone who has them "moo" like a cow, sent them back several times with same results(few years ago). Please let us know if you get the honking resolved.

Also, does anyone know the difference between the 710P and the 710N?
I think i'm gonna buy some 710Ns and give them a try, because no matter how many times I ask this qustion I never get an answer.

Not sure what the difference is between the 710P & 710N but I just removed my APR R1's and installed the 710N's. No noticeable performance difference but as mentioned, my APR R1's Honked like a Goose, sent them back for there wonderful repair and my cost for shipping and received them back with no change. I would not recommend the R1 but since I now have two spares, I'm gonna try one of them on my tt and see if it works any better there.

Funny...one of the few parts i have had zero problems with OEM but i'm not chipped. My 'new' used TT however will be a different story (again) eventually.

Hi
should I run with forge yellow springs?

Because mine rs6 is chipped to about 540 hp and I should have 19 psi pressure.
