A DV is a shift valve just like a BOV and a wastegate. They serve only to relive pressure. The difference being that a DV stands for diverter valve. I vents pressure back into the intake when you let off the throttle. It is located before the throttle body. A BOV stands for blow off valve and it vents pressure, when you let off the throttle, to the atmosphere and is located before the throttle body. A wastegate vents pressure when you reach a certain boost level and it either in or located on the turbo.
You have a DV. The only reason I suggest one is becuase the second generation DSM's have a crappy plastic Bosch unit that leaks easily. I would suggest a unit from a first generation DSM. They are much stronger and can be modified to hold 30PSI.
