Cool. Just asking because those needle valves are junk. Not saying it because they're my opposition. Those valves are $5 chinese specials. I went through a heap of valves years ago trying to find one that worked and didn't leak or lose adjustment. That valve was the worst out of all of them.
Funny on the price too. Exactly the same as what mine sell for.
Let us know how you go with it all, I've only spoken with a handful of people with these valves. I might have to hit them up and see if they'll let me sell them. That'll confuse the hell out of people. Lol.
Time to change your avatar too mate. Or is it in remembrance?

Yea I guess price has to be the same due to them being the same thing lol..
Tbh I wasn't going to run the needle.. might see how it goes shut off to start with.
My only concern is highway psi.. factory it use to sit on 13 - 15psi at 110 which is basically ecu max..
Most say they see a bit less with no needle.. but im going to fit it so I can fine tune it..
And yea a bit early.. Bloody miss it ey.. get a small knot in the guts when I drive past the old q..
Even wife said we'll get another one one day.. comp ute maybe.. doubt it but let a boy dream ey..

Those cheap Chinee ones can be had for $5 delivered from China too. Don't know how they do it. The Tognella needle valves, Italian made ones, are around $70. Big price difference, but I have everything here from the $5 to the Togenlla and bought 5 others in between this range and tried them all. The only one that came close was the Ingersol Rand needle valve, but the drawback was its size, and the entire valve was plastic. Other than that it was a pretty good valve.
Kallen, use the needle valve mate with the Tillix. The Tillix will only cap the boost pressure, nothing more, the needle valve lets you control and adjust your cruising boost levels. These two valves go together well, like a piss and a fart.

For a needle valve it's very touchy lol...
Was playing around last night and when drawing a breath threw it it went from nothing to what felt like no restrictions in maybe 1 & 3/4 turns...
Now I know why they say small increments..
And I'd have a guess and say that's where it's "you get what you pay for".
