No a waste gate is made to deal with the high heat of the exhaust system, a BOV is not built for it. Plus a waste gate operates gradually to control the boost level. A BOV is open or closed. Boost would be erratic.

How do you hook up the wastegate and blow off valve hoeses on a 98 eclipse?

To hook up the wastegate and blow-off valve (BOV) hoses on a 1998 Eclipse, first locate the vacuum source on the intake manifold or throttle body for the BOV. Connect a hose from this vacuum source to the BOV's inlet. For the wastegate, run a hose from the turbo's compressor housing to the wastegate actuator, ensuring it is secure. Make sure all connections are tight and free from leaks to ensure proper operation.


Can you put a blow off valve on non-turbo 98' eclipse?

No, you cant put a blow off on a non turbo eclipse. i have a turbo eclipse gsx. My car you can but yours you cant. You have to have a turbo to have a blow offWhat do you wantIt sounds like you just don't know what you want. A blow off or ( wastegate )relief valve is part of a turbocharger and releases pressure built up by the unit. If you want to shoot vapor in the air from your hood to look cool you want a Nitrous Oxide purge valve, in which case you need a nitrous system.Turbocharged engines have a wastegate that opens to vent excess pressure to prevent the engine from receiving too much boost. A sudden overcharge of boost will lean the engine out and cause damage.Hot rodders like to replace the stock ones with aftermarket units that deliver higher peak performance, and in the case of the uneducated hot rodder, instant aluminum scrap. Cars that whistle like a party favor may sound cool to you at a stoplight but I would not suggest buying one as a used transportation vehicle. If the maximum air flow is not controlled and compensated for by the injection computer then that engines' days are numbered.The blow off valve is a secondary safety device after the wastegate and before the throttle plate to allow the turbo to continue to spin when the throttle plate is suddenly closed causing a back up of extremely high pressure air that normally would stop the turbo compressor cold. When the throttle plate is opened again there is a delay in getting the turbo back up to speed and producing boost. this valve vents that high pressure hammer and prevents it from slamming back into the turbo compressor.


Can you use a turbo with a blow out valve on a automatic motor?

yes


Will a blow off valve work on a diesel turbo motor?

No


Can you install a blow off valve for a 90' eclipse with a stock turbo?

It already has a blow off valve on it, and a rather good one.


Can you put a blow off valve on a 90 Honda civic without turbo?

No, without a turbo, there is no blow off valve. However, if you really wanted to, they have fake blow off valves for sale. These mimic the sound of a blow off valve. It would be an absolute waste of money, but hey, it's your money.


Can you put a blow out valve on a 97 Toyota starlet without a turbo?

NO


Can you install a blow valve to a non turbo 93 subaru impreza?

Technically you can, but unless you have a turbo a blow valve won't do you any good. It's be like hanging sidepipes on a car and not hook them up.


Blow off valve with no turbo?

Amazingly pointless. The blow off valve is there to release intake pressure if you have the turbo spinning and then go off the throttle suddenly. If you haven't got a turbo there's no intake pressure to release if you go off the throttle.


Can you fit a BOV on a non-turbo 2200cc v-tec?

Where would you put a blow off valve on a non turbo, and what would it blow off? So the answer is no.


Can you install a blow valve to a non turbo corsa?

You can, but it'd be amazingly pointless. The blow valve is needed on turbo engines to release the pressure that can build up if the driver goes off the throttle quickly and the engine revs drops fast. W/o a turbo you won't get any pressure build-up so there's no use for a blow valve.


How do you make a turbo whistle?

Install a blow off valve, it releases excess pressure from the intake side of the turbo
