The latest Smartstream 1.6 T-GDi engines fitted to Hyundai's i20 N and other models do not use a MAF sensor which means that you can vent to atmosphere for that blow-off sound, if you like, without causing any driveability issues or 'Check Engine' lights. However, this Mach 2 valve is for those who want all the performance of the GFB TMS valve technology without any of the noise.
That said, Mach 2 gives you the freedom to fit an optional Atmospheric Venting Conversion kit at a later date to give you all the sound so you don't need to buy a new valve.
Product Note: Only for models with Smartstream 1.6T-GDI engine (G4FP), NOT Gamma 1.6T-GDI (G4FJ). You can identify Smartstream models because they will have 'Smartstream' on the engine cover.

THE SIMPLE AND ESSENTIAL MOD FOR QUICKER BOOST RESPONSE
Utilising Proven Tms Technology To Ensure Dependable Boost Holding And Optimum Throttle Response
Blow off sound not to your taste? Want something as “sleeper” as possible? Don’t want your partner to know you’ve stuck a turbo on the daily (again)? Then the GFB Mach 2 is the valve for you!
Using GFB’s TMS technology the Mach 2 can help return the engine to peak boost up to 30% faster than a factory diverter valve when shifting gears (more information below).
The Mach 2 is available in a range of universal and bolt-on kits for most popular turbo models. And when we say “bolt-on”, that’s exactly what we mean! No additional adaptors, parts or vehicle modifications are required – simply remove the factory bypass valve and replace it with the Mach 2 – it’s that simple!
The Mach 2 is configured as a 100% recirculating valve (i.e. bypass, plumb back) as a direct factory replacement, for when you want all the performance WITHOUT the noise!
Why replace the factory bypass valve? Better performance! Factory bypass valves typically have two main shortcomings – one is that they are often designed to blow open above a certain pressure to protect the engine (if you drive an EVO, take note and read this article!), and the other is they are not optimised for throttle response.
The Mach 2 solves both issues. With its pressure-balanced design, the Mach 2 can effectively hold unlimited boost (unlimited in that no turbo could ever produce enough pressure to damage it), and the TMS technology ensures maximum throttle response.
We live in a throw-away society, conditioned by cheap products and frequently released new models, to expect eventual failure and discard something when it stops working or is superseded. However, pride in workmanship and our commitment to quality means that when we put our name to something, we are also staking our reputation on it.
That’s why we back our products with the best Warranty in the business! You should expect a lifetime of use from a well-engineered product, so if your GFB product fails as a result of defective materials or faulty workmanship whilst you remain the original owner, we will repair or replace it. For full warranty details, please visit the GFB Australia website.
If the fault of occurred as a result of usage outside of the terms of the warranty, or you are not the original owner, fear not, we can still help you. You should never need to throw a GFB product away, as spare parts are available and won’t cost the earth.
