The primary function of a blow-off valve or bypass valve is contorlling controlling compressor surge, therfore increasing the longevity of the turbocharger. Also, the plastic factory bypass valve can become prone to leaking boost over time with use. Our valves are all contructed from full billet aluminum and offer improvements in overall repsonse and boost handling. This is especially important if you plan to tune or increase the boost on your vehicle. The sound is merely a byproduct of pressurized air being released when the valve functions.
@@TurbosmartHQ approximately how much longer will this make a turbo last? It’s something I am considering but would like some solid information. Thanks in advance!
Pretty much any, it’s all up to on the style you would like. None at any type of performance. Let me know what you go with. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Is it, only for the "Sound", the Reason that you changed out the stock unit? Why would you want to be rev'ing up your motor to hear a pressure releasing valve, releasing air? The air brakes on my RV do that too!
@@DownwiththeGOP OK, I scrolled down through the comments, and some guys mentioned that it sounds good. One guy wrote that it was the mod he was looking for. What does it do? Add more boost pressure? Better gas mileage? More HP? Your video just talks about the sound. What does it cost and what does it do?
@@DownwiththeGOP I have no idea what a "Pinned Comment" is. Why the * doesn't the dude just explain why he's replacing the tubo pressure overpressure relief valve in his opening comments of his video?
It’s not to bad and I’d recommend it for anyone with a wrench set. I’m no mechanic and I was able to do it. But also I don’t imagine it’d cost that much to take somewhere and get it done.
This is the worst mod ever. Every time you hear a blow-off, you know you just wasted all your boost. Now you have to spend time and fuel to build boost again. The factory diverted valve keeps the boost circulating and ready to work when you need it. It's like honking every time you take your foot off the throttle to get attention and throw some $$ out on the back window.
Hi there...the short answer here is WITH a bypass valve, the air is no longer pressurerized when released and then recirculated. Once released, it is at atmospheric pressure again (just like the rest of the air in the intake) and therefore the exact same amount of "time" and "effort" is needed. So whether its released to atmosphere (like with this valve) or recirculated (like the OE facotry valve) its the same process when it comes to building boost in the system. Manufacturers of turbo vehicles typically go with a bypass valve, primairly for the quiet operation and emissions regulations. Hope that make sense 👍
Why?

@@travisc3571 longer then stock
Boom roasted
Love the honesty and candor of your vid .. what if any intercooler would go nicely with that BOV thanks
Thank you! And I would go with a livernois or a mishimoto
Any suggestions for a black exhaust tip? I like the quietness of the stock exhaust but hate the chrome tip.

hey Blake, great work on all these Vids - keep em coming bro! i just picked up my new powerboost today!
Thank you! Let me know how you like your new truck, thank you for watching and commenting!
Sounds amazing , I bought one then ford told me if my turbos ever had issues my warranty would be void so i won’t be installing is 😑
Just take it off then put the stock one on
I read you couldn’t install a blow off valve on a powerboost. I have a 2021 powerboost. Would that one you installed work with mine
You can install the one from turbo smart with no problem
@@ColeCulture thanks man. Godspeed
The mod I was looking for!!!!
Lol turbos. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Should the intercooler be changed to a better aftermarket, since u have to remove it?
You definitely can. It isn’t necessary though. Are you in a hot area! Do you drag your truck? Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@ColeCulturedoes this mess with your warranty? I have a platinum powerboost with extended warranty so I don’t want to mess with that
I want this! will it void my factory warranty?
No it will not
Sounds good 🤟 can't wait for more mods gj.
Much more to come. Thank you for watching and commenting!

Nope not just for sound. Read the comments

@@jamesdumas6602 not if you look at the reply to the pinned comment. Turbo smart actually goes in depth on why you would want it.

@@jamesdumas6602 go look at the top comment that says “why?”
Look at that reply. Your welcome.
Looks like a real pain to do

Get you a oil catch can
Yeah maybe. Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@ColeCulture I have one on my 5.0L you really need one as this engine has a high compression ratio. It’s like 3/4 full after 2 months lol 2021 5.0L
not needed on these engines. these new ones are both port and direct injected.
@@paimond223 that’s what I thought too but wasn’t 100% sure.
@@paimond223 the intake manifold gets gunked up though. That’s really it.

Awesome and thank you for explaining that to my audience. I really appreciate it! Thank you for watching and commenting!
