IMPORTANT NOTES ON YOUR BOV

Use only silicone hose that is the correct size and pressure/vacuum rating for your application when fitting your BOV

Ensure that all plumbing is secured with suitable clamps or the correct fittings are used

Your BOV should be mounted at least 100mm from any high heat source or adequately shielded


RECOMMENDATIONS

Turbosmart recommends that your BOV is fitted and adjusted by an appropriately qualified technician

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW TO INSTALL YOUR BOV

Allow the engine to cool down before installing your BOV

Identify a suitable location along the intercooler/intake piping for the BOV

– this will need to be between the outlet of the turbo and

the throttle body ideally between the throttle body and the intercooler (See diagram below).























Remove the BOV from the weld on adapter by removing the V-Band clamp. The V-band clamp is removed by opening the screw
until it has reached the

end stop, then pushing the head of the screw in a “syringe” like motion and lifting the BOV off the weld

flange.


Step 1: Step 2: Step 3:












Weld the adapter onto the intake pipe in your ideal position, then allow the adapter to cool down

Put the V-Band clamp over the adapter before re-installing the O-Ring seal and the BOV

Open the V-Band clamp and place in position. Tighten the V-Band clamp screw until it is finger tight then turn an additional 2.5
turns or 4 Nm (3 ft/lbs) with an allen key. Be sure not to over tighten the screw as this will cause damage to the V-Band clamp

Identify a standalone vacuum / pressure source from a port after the throttle body and connect with correctly sized hose to the
vacuum/boost port on the cap of the BOV. Ensure this line is as short as possible

Secure all silicone hose ends with correct clamps

Start the engine and check for air leaks in the system

SPRING ADJUSTMENT


The purpose of the spring is to control the position of the piston at engine idle. Different vehicle setups need different piston positions to
function properly.
