Installation Instructions for GFB Respons (part # T9033) T9033 is suitable for custom hose-mount installations (1.25” I.D. hose inlet and outlet), and is also a direct factory replacement for: • Mitsubishi Lancer EVO I-X • Mitsubishi Lancer GSR (4G93) • Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart • Mitsubishi Ralliart Colt For typical Mitsubishi installations: 1. Locate the factory diverter valve, and if necessary, remove any intercooler hoses in order to gain access to the valve – in most cases this isn’t necessary.
Spring Adjustment Contrary to popular belief, the spring pre-load DOES NOT need to be adjusted to suit different boost levels. The valve will stay shut under full throttle conditions regardless of boost pressure or spring pre-load. Rather, the spring pre-load affects how easily the valve opens when you lift the throttle, and how long it stays open when it vents. Adjusting the spring is a simple matter of ensuring the valve opens enough to release the air, but not long enough to cause idling problems.
Adjusting the Noise The unique patented venting bias adjustment feature on the GFB Respons lets you vary the amount of air vented to atmosphere or recirc, thereby changing the volume of the sound. Turning the venting bias adjuster (figure 3) fully anticlockwise means all the air will vent through the trumpet, which is the loudest setting. Turning the adjuster clockwise from this position will begin to open up more of the recirc outlet, until a ratio of 50/50 is reached.
