The blow-off valve should not be confused with a waste-gate. The waste-gate is a device that by-passes the turbine wheel of the turbocharger, limiting the shaft-speed of the turbocharger. Therefore, limiting the boost (pressure) that the compressor generates and keeping the turbocharger from over-speeding. A blow-off valve is mounted in the intake Plumbing between the turbocharger compressor and the throttle plate. The blow-off valve is a second safety measure against the turbocharger over-boosting and damaging the engine. The blow-off valve is more commonly used to keep the turbocharger spinning when the throttle plate is suddenly closed. When the turbocharger is generating maximum boost pressure at full throttle and then the throttle is suddenly closed, compressed air coming from the compressor slams against the throttle, generating extremely high pressures that travel backwards to the compressor stopping the compressor from spinning. When the throttle plate is again opened, the engine must spool the turbocharger shaft again. The effects of this high pressure can also be very damaging to the turbocharger.
It doesn't
No
They got it to work on a bike...
no, bov are mounted on turbos
next to the blow off switch
A splitter valve has a blow off valve sound but it redirects the airflow. It combines the features of a diverter valve and blow off in one housing.
It already has a blow off valve on it, and a rather good one.
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.
Blow-Off Valve
Without it it's not needed. it's to vent excess boost.
yes it will work the cold air intake will produce enough back pressure thus causing a pssshhhh sound for the blow off valve if u hook it up inside the cold air intake system you will hear your bov working will not work on the out side of the C.I.A
Blow off valve faulty or expansion tank needed at water heater.
