blow off valve?
 

next to a cool sound what will a good blow off valve do for performance?

i heard that they get the car to spool faster.... plus where do i get one please give me mulitple options...


thanks

RE: blow off valve?
 

1. I have never heard of them helping the turbo to spool faster.

2. A benefit is that it lets off excess boost pressure.

Do you have an AUTO trans or MAN trans? If an AUTO trans, it will only go off once you let off the gas pedal.

3. Look in the FOR SALE section of this forum there is one for sale there. Also check over on Volvospeed there may or may not be a few still for sale over there.

TURBO XS Type H-RFL is what I have they are known to leak. I own a 99 s70. I don't know if mine does, but I would get an HKS SSQV.

plus some of the sites have disclaimers agianst if it messes up engine....is this something to worry about?

RE: blow off valve?
 

Yes they are knock offs. I would say they are still good. If you want the real deal pay the real bucks.
