Basically, dont do it! Unless you prefer a noise that gets tiring very quickly to performance

It will require an adapter plate to allow it to be swapped with the standard one, if you still have the standard air filter a couple of pipes will need blocked off, well one being honest unless you already have an uprated air filter...
other options include welding a pipe on to the hardpipe or buying a T-piece and fitting it somewhere else in the system

You didnt actually buy that? Mate im not trying to be a nob but why buy a high performance car and ruin it by putting tat on it? If you really do have to buy a dump valve on a Rev 2 then at least fork out for a well respected one (HKS, Blitz, Sard etc.). Promise you that will leak boost like a good'un

There's a reason you don't see Porsche Turbo's / Ferrari's etc with dump valves.
But hey, each to their own.

god bless ebay...
i bet that leaks like crazy lol.
simple answer if you want the best possible performance stick with stock.
If you want to make your car overfuel, be jerky and sluggish just for a little noise to show everyone your "packing boost" then fit that pile of crap.
Now the HKS SSQV is a proper bit of kit, not some ebay special.

Probably because Ferrari haven't made a turbo car for what? 20 years
