Boomba Racing has just released its Boost Operated Blow Off Valve for the S550 Mustang EcoBoost.
The kit replaces the OEM bypass valve in favor of Boomba’s billet aluminum valve which features 100% vent to atmosphere operation and a brass piston for leak-free operation (tested to over 75 PSI).
“The purpose of this blow off valve is to prevent turbo lag and allow the car to hold boost in a steadier manner. When the throttle plate closes, excess boost pressure is vented so that the turbo can continue to spin during higher RPMs rather than surge from backpressure,” the company writes.
The Boomba Racing Blow Off Valve uses an ECU-controlled solenoid that provides the blow off valve with both vacuum and boost pressure to both keep the valve open and closed depending on the type of pressure.
According to Boomba, this configuration combined with the ECU controlled solenoid prevents the valve from fluttering or prematurely opening which works to eliminate unwanted pressure spikes during venting.
