With all turbocharged vehicles, keeping the
turbo spooled up and boost pressure consistent is necessary for optimal
performance. To enhance the new 2008 Subaru WRX, we have developed this
fully adjustable and configurable blow off valve for your vehicle. The
BOV body, flange, and adapters are CNC machined 6061 aluminum. Each
component is anodized in your choice of blue, red, or silver.
Internally, the valve uses a piston and spring design to hold the boost
pressure. The steel coil spring has been tested to hold up to 40psi of
pressure. The piston is made out of a durable brass which includes a
Delrin washer to provide efficient movement inside the valve body. The
valves top adjustment knob features a laser engraved AP logo, which can
be turned to stiffen or loosen the spring. A locking collar is included
which is made in stainless steel.
The valve can be set up in 3
configurations depending on your vehicles performance level and tuning.
You can configure it as a 100% recirculation, 50/50 (where some recircs
and some vents to atmosphere), and then 100% atmospheric where all the
air is vented out. All appropriate plugs and fittings are included. The
50/50 setup is pictured. This valve fits all 2008 and up Subaru WRX GH
and GE chassis with the factory top mount intercooler or intercooler
flange.
