    Question collins twin piston & baileys dv30?

    Rate basicaly ive got a collins that dosent seem to work me thinks, the reason why i say this is cause when driving along & yes giving some boost yes it dumps like its supposed to but say for instanced i dip the clutch the revs drop dead & the car dies rate, but when i have the plastic bosch recirc valve i can dip the clutch, brake abruppley & the revs just nicely drop back down to 800rpm, so theres got to be somthing wrong with the collins but if someone knows different then please comment.

    & as for the dv30 what do people think to them & has anyone ever used one before? as i'm thinking of getting one as replacement for the bosch & the collins.

    Think you've answered your own question mate - there's probably summat wrong with the Collins. It'll be a weak spring at a guess. You can replace it with a stronger spring, if you get in touch with Collins they'll be able to advise you.

    Regarding Baileys, people have tried them - I personally have not. I have heard them, don't think they're as good as a Collins, but that is only my opinion, others prefer the Baileys noise... it's horses for courses..
