Bol Posted August 14, 2022 Author Share Posted August 14, 2022 Thank very much for the explanation. I shall discuss it with the mechanic. I shall inform you in about a week the workshops open. There are i think two kinds of turbosmart recirculation valve, one is more expensive than the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are their differences? Are they differents parts? Do they do the same work? Which one do you recommend? https://www.airtecmotorsport.com/product/airtec-by-turbosmart-1-0-ecoboost-uprated-recirculating-valve/ https://www.airtecmotorsport.com/product/airtec-by-turbosmart-kompact-shortie-dual-port/ Which should be better for performance?

Bol Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 The turbosmart kompact bov and recirculation valve seem to do the same job. Their difference is the way each one does it. That is what can be read for each one on their technical features. Turbosmarts reply about turbosmart booster tee. The boost tee can technically adapt onto any car if it has a pneumatic internal wastegate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JW1982 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 The Turbosmart Recirculation valve has full internal recirculation (just like the original one). The Turbosmart Kompact BOV has 50% internal and 50% external circulation. This can be detected as an air leak and as a result of this can generate a DTC code and activate the warning light. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bol Posted August 16, 2022 Author Share Posted August 16, 2022 Turbosmart Recirculation valve. So this is recommended. They claim that it is better that the original and keeps boost high. Does the the same sound as the original or more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bol Posted August 16, 2022 Author Share Posted August 16, 2022 The original is considered to be a bov or a recirculation valve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JW1982 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 The original is full recirculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bol Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 The manual turbo booster valve was connected almost a month ago. So far so good. No issues. As the mechanic, the technical support and others said since there are no issues like CEL (check engine light) then it is alright and it should let it be as it is. It seems to work fine on the third or fourth turn (click). Performance is increaced. The difference is noticeable. Not very big. It was tested many times. It didnt solve entirely the boost leak problem, again CEL turned on a few times when driving on a hil with 6th gear (a car shouldnt be drived like this, but it was done to be tested). It turned on when the manual turbo booster was on zero (like when the booster is not connected, off) and when it was clicked (on). Fuel consumption is still on normal levels (when it was remaped/tuned it was very high). Generally manual turbo boosters are not recommended on ecoboost engines, but since there are no issues for now (after a month) and no CEL then it seems to be alright.
