GFB DV+ Diverter Valve

The GFB DV+ T9358 diverter valve offers a direct-fit performance upgrade for the factory diverter valve found on many modern Mercedes, Ford, and Volvo vehicles. This innovative design leverages the strengths of the original equipment, retaining the factory solenoid coil for seamless integration and faster ECU control. The DV+ replaces the weak plastic valve parts with an anodized billet aluminum housing and a precision-machined brass piston, ensuring superior reliability and the ability to hold significantly more boost, especially on modified engines. GFB's DV+ distinguishes itself from other aftermarket solutions by focusing on improving the existing system rather than replacing it entirely with a traditional pneumatic valve. This approach avoids the complexities of vacuum hose runs, additional tapping into manifold vacuum, and the need for separate solenoid valves or ballast resistors, which can result in slower response, increased cost, and longer installation times. The DV+'s "pilot-actuated" valve mechanism allows the factory solenoid to control airflow to a passage that actuates the piston, enabling lightning-fast and reliable valve operation even at high boost levels. This progressive actuation means the valve opens only as much as needed for boost pressure, contributing to sharper throttle response and preventing compressor surge or turbo flutter. This product does not suit diesel models.
