HI PSI Member 1,589 Member For: 18y 11m 14d Gender: Male Location: Central Queensland Posted 18/06/10 01:59 AM Share Posted 18/06/10 01:59 AM (edited) I too had wondered if no blow of valve would help keep boost in a manual and maybe help to obtain better race times?? What does s a blow off valve do.. Remove the boost back pressure on the turbo.. So would this be an advantage for strip applications? Especially in manuals.... ????????????

It all comes down to which sound you prefer - psssch or tsu tsu tsu. No more, no less.

Smoke them tyres Member 557 Member For: 17y 4m 17d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 26/06/10 10:09 AM Share Posted 26/06/10 10:09 AM (edited) Maybe I should have said "when"....There is a boost spike when the throttle is closed on the turbo after boost is applied on accel...that is what the blowoff valve controls ---by venting the excess airflow/pressure to atmosphere or back to the turbo inlet (plumb back). Reliability of turbo and throttle response are the main aims.A plumb back fitment is done on std cars as these valves can be somewhat open under vacuum, and hence with this style they still only require 1 main air filter for servicing.
