Do you know how they work or what they do?
I fitted a DV+ a few months back. It does what it claims it will do. Cheap too.

DIY. get underneath car. Acces the DV+ via the cutout for the driveshaft.
Disconnect the electric connecter.
Undo the 3 allen bolts - 5.5mm (?)
Remove the OEM DV - keep it as a spare.
Assemble GFB compnents as per instructions inc longer allen bolts
assebly is reverse of above.
It will take 30 minutes - tops
For the Polo it looks like 2 allen bolts. I'd also move that spring clamp on the hose a fraction anti-clockwise.

After a bit of reading these dv+ seem to be pretty damn good an being in a car pre and post fitment, it's clearly evident (stage 2+ Jetta) that. They do what they say. However, those with stock cars and even stage 1 tunes probably don't need to fork out for one.

All good for now, but like gavs said if it's not stage 2 tuned there's no need for it.

Woosh? No, it's not for those that want to draw attention to themselves.
You do get a noise that sounds like the engine is detonating. A bit disconcerting at first.
Read the info at the GFB site.
