Default Does a DV increase HP?

I have a 2004 ultra sport with a GIAC chip. I am quiet happy with it, but I am looking for a little more. Will a diverter valve give me anything significant or should I not waste my money and keep the stock one? Mike at emotion autowerks said the stock one should be fine, what do you guys think?

Default No, get a 710N or a Bosch 110 sport valve.

They are chaep $35+ or so and work just as good as the expensive $130+ ones.

My $0.02

You will blow a stock (not 710N or 110) very soon with the GIAC!

Default The stock unit is an accident waiting to happen

As you're chipped, upgrade to the next level.

Default how do I get mine replaced with the TT 710 valve under warranty?

it's not blown, but I'd like to get a new one installed. and I don't want the dealer to know I'm chipped.
