If you want sound with your performance (or performance with your sound!), GFB’s VTA delivers just that! By combining the proven performance benefits of our ground-breaking DV+ with atmosphere venting, the VTA delivers an aggressive blow-off sound, improved throttle response and boost recovery, as well as superior boost holding and reliability in extreme conditions.
The VTA shares the successful DV+ design philosophy:
“Keep what works, replace what doesn’t”
This means we retain ECU control and the solenoid from the factory diverter to ensure the fastest possible response time, without the added and unnecessary cost of replacing the solenoid like some brands do.
The weak part of the factory diverter has always been the plastic valve mechanism – this is the part we replace. The VTA features CNC machined billet components that last a lifetime, and we also change the valve operation method for better performance. The factory diverter valve can only operate in two states – open, or closed. When it opens fully at low boost, or during a partial throttle lift mid-corner, it causes increased lag and a noticeably non-linear boost transition.
GFB pioneered the use of “pilot operation” in the DV+, which works by re-purposing the factory solenoid to control the pressure behind the piston rather than the piston itself. This allows the solenoid stroke to be much shorter, speeding up the response time and increasing the actuation force. More importantly, it allows the piston to open and close progressively in response to the amount of boost pressure present, which smooths boost transitions and reduces the lag caused by the factory diverter valve.
It is this design philosophy that makes the VTA not only the best performing blow off valve solution, but also the best value on the market.
VTA or DV+?
Depends if you want sound or not. Both valves are constructed with the same quality materials and valve mechanism, and both offer the same performance and reliability benefits. However, the VTA vents to atmosphere for sound whilst the DV+ recirculates the air to keep it quiet.
Why choose a VTA over a “BOV spacer”?
“BOV spacers” are cheap and they make sound. But that’s it. All the inherent performance and reliability issues you get with the factory diverter valve remain, because a spacer doesn’t change the diverter valve in any way. The VTA improves the operation of the diverter valve for sound AND performance.
Why choose a VTA over a kit that includes a solenoid?
Because there’s no performance benefit to replacing the factory solenoid, only a much higher price! If a VTA with the factory solenoid can open in a couple of hundredths of a second, why pay more than you need to?

BOV
Shipping was extremely fast and installation was a breeze. Took me about 20 minutes to install everything and the results were worth. I've been breaking necks ever since the install.

Very Satisfied
I have a 2009 Mk5.5 GTI and am very pleased with difference this product made. The only modifications on my car is an aftermarket cold air intake system, and the VTA BOV. You can notice a small difference in throttle response but the real catch is the sound. The car went from making almost no sound to vvvvvshhhh every time you took your foot off the gas. It sounds even better from the outside of the car hearing it rip down the road. The sound in my opinion is not obnoxious. If you like your music loud it won't interfere and if you roll your windows up it pretty much vanishes. Overall I am very pleased with the product and would recommend it to anyone looking for the signature turbo BOV sound.

Overall great product, was a bit of a pain to get under the car with out a lift but it went ok with a floor jack. Easy to install about 40 min max, it has worked great so far.

VTA
I have a mk6 gti,I installed the product hoping to have the atmosphere sound but I got nothing. The only time I hear anything is when I build boost in drive around 40mph but nothing when I let off at high rpm’s like you would expect.

The fit and finish is perfect. The sound really turns heads

VTA blow off valve.
This product improved the performance of my car dramatically. And the sound is awesome. I recommend this if you are into speed and performance. Also very easy to install.
-
Excellent
Well made blowoff valve. Easy to follow installation guide. Definitely gives the stock turbo a much louder ‘whoosh’ sound when letting off the gas.
-
Great Sounds, Awesome Build Quality
Great valve for these cars. I installed when the car was still stock otherwise. After IE intake and IE tune this valve comes alive. With the higher boost pressures your REALLY hear the sound when you shift or let off the gas under boost. The sound is addicting. Some say it sounds like air brakes on a bus/big rig, but having grown up around trucks I don't agree with that. It sounds awesome and is sure to turn heads if that's what you're into.

Awesome sound
If your looking for that whoooosh sound this is perfect it's easy to install took 15 to 25 min great instructions as well the only thing it doesn't tell you is that the factory airbox or aftermarket intake has to come off to access those plastic hose to run the boost tap line that's provided other then that taking a lil while to figure out its a easy install.

Good product if you are keeping stock
I bought it about a year ago and I am really happy with the sound it produces. It's always important to remember that there are practically no power gains/effects from adding this onto your vehicle.
Pros: Good sound, easy for boost tap, easy to install
Cons: if you are running extra boost from stock, be careful with the metal arms that attach itself. Mine popped off on both sides, bursting the rubber circle gaskets that keeps it air tight. My workaround for this was just by adding two zip ties to each arm for more of a hug around the pipes.

Solid product
Very happy with my purchase. It came in less than 48 hours. Took me a minute to get the adapter on but once I did the rest was easy. You can definitely hear the “whoosh” when you let of the pedal. Highly recommend if you’re thinking about getting a blow off valve.

Blow off valve
The product works as should sounds louder than most other blow off valves I’ve heard. Only thing is it’s not mentioned in the instructions that you have to take out your air intake to be able to access the vacuum tap like. Also the vacuum tap causes the line to press against a radiator line which I’m not sure how long that’ll be good for. But over all great product. Sturdy
