Differences & Which DV is better - 710N or 710P ?

Post by P1LAYA-ZN »

Good Day gents,

I need to replace my old 710N DV on my S3 8L, and I've seen a guy selling the updated 710P DV ?
Does anyone know more about this DV and is it superior to the older 710N ?
My 1 is as old as the car so it will be superior anyways, but just would like some more info before I decide whether to get this updated version or a Forge DV ?

Thanks.. :wink:

Forge is a pure waste of money.
The 710p is just the newer revision which some say is designed for a lower boost application but it does the job just fine. If your current DV is fine and the car is holding boost there shouldn't be any need to replace it anyway.

My car has over 320k Kms on it with the original 710N and is still going strong even with high boost for instance.
