The Perrin Blow-off valve is essential to all
turbocharged vehicles. The purpose of the Perrin
WRX/STi Blow-off Valve is to relieve compressor
surge without reducing compressor speed. It controls
boost pressure that is built up by the turbo and
recirculates air when the car is not under load
(in between shifts).
|
This prevents pressure from backing
up into the compressor housing, causing the turbo
impeller blade to rapidly stop or even worse,
to spin backwards (compressor surge or backspin).
Doing so can be potentially destructive to the
turbine wheel and shaft.
The Perrin blowoff valve is one of the best we
have seen. The design allows it to rotate a full
360 degrees so mounting on aftermarket intercoolers
or piping is not a issue. There are also o-rings
between the BOV and the flange, to eliminate any
possible power draining boost leaks. The spring
tension and flow rates also independantly adjustable
allowing you to control valve reaction time and
the volume of air expelled. Spring tension is
simply adjusted by turing the top cap. The Perrin
blowoff valve is currenly available only in Signature
Series Red.
