Has anybody fitted one or had one fitted? I have a Mk 4 turbo and fancy one. Is it easy to do?

Yip easy peasy take you approx 20 mins.

Don't get a dump to atmosphere type tho, looses power & can in worst case cause turbo damage, stick to a recirculating type (ie dumps back into the airbox) like the standard item.

Lost of crap items on the market tho & Turbo dynamics in Dorset sell the only type I can recomend.

Try any of the VAG tuning companies. Forge seem to be a particular favourite for the 1.8T engine.

As mentioned you need a recirculating valve.
