what about the 2.3L ecoboost? i’m tryina add one to my 2020 Explorer ? anyone got any recommendations or will turbosmart be a good choice for my engine?
They are excellent choices for the 2.3L. Overall, as highlighted in the video, they are some of the highest quality units you can buy. Although, it's definitely a personal preference of sound. Certain manufacturers will have somewhat unique sounds to their blow off valve.
Turbosmart claims better performance with their valve however we didn't do any back to back testing with it vs the stock valve to say whether that is true or not. We're still running their BOV and after several thousands of miles on it we haven't experienced anything negative. It's a direct replacement that bolts right in and sounds great. Let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks!
@@Lethalcamp thanks for the response man! I also was wondering - between the "open" and "closed" version - same performance right or benefits? It's literally just the "PSHHHHH"
@@sroc3 It's our pleasure! As to your other question Turbosmart says that both perform the same. The only difference is the sound that you get from the dual port (noise) vs the recirculating one (no noise).
We haven't lubricated ours and have thousands of miles on it since installation with zero issues at all. If they do require lubrication I'm sure it can be found on Turbosmarts website when searching the part number. Let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks!
If you want the valve to recirculate just like stock and not make a blow off valve sound then you’ll go with the 100% recirculating one. If you want it to have the blow off valve sound to it you’ll want to go with the 50/50 one as it recirculates only 50% of the air where the other 50% is vented to atmosphere. Let us know if that cleared it up for you. Thanks!
@@nicoaguilar13 I’m very disappointed with the dial it just makes noise and on top of that it loses response my tremor is tuned and after the tuned I installed it but it feels that it loses response 😒
I personally don't believe this would void a warranty but that's always up to the dealer that's servicing your vehicle. Find a mod friendly dealer would be my best advice and make sure to tip your service writer. It goes a long way. Trust me!!
@@Lethalcamp Meh. Spending that kind of money on one on the first place and going through all that isn't worth it....just to impress the neighbor's kids.
Very easy. Just remove the factory air box and intake tube and you have access to the factory valve. 3 bolts to remove it and then install the Turbosmart one. Should take you 30 minutes at most.
I can't say for sure but I believe that the valve is still monitored by the PCM and without having any recirculation it may pose issues, put into limp more of throw codes.
A recirc valve does a very similar job to a blow off valve, the key difference is that a recirc valve recirculates the excess pressure back into the intake, instead of out into the atmosphere. This, in turn, helps your turbo setup retain psi level better between shifts, and gets rid of turbo flutter. So if you have a 100% out to atmosphere the turbo will have more lag and your engine will run rich between shifts. This is true for the 50/50 valve too just not as profound.
I need help finding this for my 2019 Lincoln MKC 2.3 ecoboost

@@Lethalcamp thanks! i’ll probably go with the VR19 50-50
Is the dual port adjustable? I'm looking for one for my Fiesta ST. I want to maximize the whoosh sound and minimize flutter.
So is the Performance the same? despite the "PSHHH" sound.....anything better for engine....etc...?

Will the 1.6 one fit on the 1.5 fusion ?
How do you lubricate this specific bov? The body of it is not like traditional bovs where the top end unscrews releasing the spring? Cheers

I understand the difference between the two, but I'm still confused on which on to buy...

@@Lethalcamp so I get that... but what performance difference are there between the two?
@@Lethalcamp to clarify, I want to know if there are any performance differences between the two... does one allow more boost or HP/torque gains?
@@Lethalcamp I wanna know the performance difference

Can I assume these voids factory warranty?

So 50 50 safe ?
Of course. We've been running one on our Bronco for quite sometime with no issues at all. Works great and gives you the psshhhhhhh sound.
For better performance which you prefer? Left or right?
The one on the right. Engineers designed the factory valves to recirculate to help with MPG and that’s how it was intended by the vehicles engineers.
Is the 50/50 adjustable? I notice a very annoying boost release on the highway while cruising?
The dual port valve is not adjustable. If you aren't a fan of the sound then we'd recommend going with the recirculating valve.
@@Lethalcamp I went with the dualport shortie
Love the gag reel 😭
So those 50 50 safe ?
Easy install on a explorer ST?
Very easy. Just remove the factory air box and intake tube and you have access to the factory valve. 3 bolts to remove it and then install the Turbosmart one. Should take you 30 minutes at most.

That is stated on all products on the site automatically, as each state/country has their own rules and regulations.
They say
I need to buy the dual port bov for my ranger.. just don't tell my wife
Awesome parts from Turbosmart. Vid needs more dick and fart jokes though, step it up Jared.
Outtakes 😂🤣😂🤣
I want the one that goes psshh!!!🤣
Why not vent 100% to atmosphere?
