GO FAST BITS DV+ DIVERTER VALVE: 2010–2018 BMW X5 M

T9366

GFB expands the DV+ range with a direct-fit solution for the weak factory diverter valve used on many European vehicles. The solenoid coil itself from the factory-fitted valve is great, the ECU opens it faster than any pneumatic valve so why replace it? The weak point, however, is the valve mechanism itself. GFB’s DV+ solves this problem by replacing the valve parts with an anodized billet aluminum housing, fitted with a brass piston machined to exacting tolerances. The end result is sharper throttle response, lightning-fast valve actuation, and it will hold as much boost as you can throw at it. Read all about the DV+ story below. Other manufacturers’ products involve replacing the entire system with a traditional pneumatic valve or include a solenoid valve with the diverter. These approaches add unnecessary cost and additional parts (in some cases requiring long vacuum hose runs, mounting brackets etc). All these additional items result in a product that is slower, less responsive, more expensive, and takes longer to install. GFB’s DV+ solution on the other hand is more responsive, less expensive, easier to install, and doesn’t cause compressor surge/ turbo flutter. This valve doesn’t require different springs or frequent re-builds either.

Features: 

• Uses factory solenoid coil for seamless integration
• Replaces plastic valve parts with metal for reliability and strength – especially important on tuned engines
• Direct-fit replacement with GFB’s TMS benefits
• Exclusive “pilot-actuated” valve mechanism for rapid response at high boost

Application: 2010–2018 BMW X5 M, 2010–2013 BMW X6 M, 2017–2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia, 2018–2020 Alfa Romeo Stelvio (2 Valves Needed for X5M)
