They are just a turbo guard blow off valve and they help save turbos from barking. Good investment to keep turbos together and healthy.

Honestly, I get it a lot in the snow. The road to our cabin is pretty steep, and a lot of the times it doesnt get plowed right away. So climbing the road can be a challenge sometimes, and letting off the throttle quickly is something that just happens.

Could u run a regular tail 50mm blow off valVe for like A turbo cars? They are a lot cheaper!

you can actually set them up but its hard to tune in. i like the idea of a mechanical bov better than electronic. I can sell you a kit with a 60mm mechanical bov. so far they have been working great once you get it dialed.

Matt,
Shoot me a PM with a price on one please.

And does it come with the weld on notched coller v-band? (In mild steel, not aluminum.)

Thanks!

And you talk about not blowin smoke. Hipocrit. BOV is worth it. Kit comes with everything needed and works of throttle position.
