Turbosmart's billet aluminium replacement is manufactured with precision, designed for unlimited boost holding capability, excellent response times and heavy-duty reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard valve is controlled by a solenoid, meaning the ECU can decide when to open the valve - meaning it can be used to bleed boost, limiting performance. The Turbosmart Kompact bypasses this solenoid, allowing to operate with manifold vacuum, putting control back in the hands of the driver, all with no check engine lights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen accelerating the turbocharger produces compressed air which supplies the engine. When you lift off the accelerator the throttle butterfly closes and the boost has no escape route, so it backs up through the intercooler and causes back pressure, preventing the turbo from spinning, also known as compression stall. By installing a dump\/diverter valve, every time you release the throttle excess boost pressure will be released creating a significant reduction in turbo 'lag' contributing towards faster pick up between gear changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is straightforward, and the valve is a bolt-on direct replacement for the factory valve. No special tools are required and all necessary hardware is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrecision machined, hand assembled and individually quality tested in Australia to the highest quality standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA direct fit for:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi A3 Hatchback\/Saloon 8V 2.0TSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi S3 Hatchback\/Saloon 8V 2.0TSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi A6 2.0TSI 2015-current\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi TT 8S 2.0TSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi TTS 8S 2.0TSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi Q3 8U 2.0TSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi Q7 2.0TSI 2015+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeat Alhambra 2.0TSI 2016+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeat Leon 5F 2.0TSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkoda Octavia RS 2.0TSI 2013+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkoda Superb 2.0TSI 2015+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolkswagen Golf GTI 5G\/MK7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolkswagen Golf R 5G\/MK7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003enote: image is for illustration purposes and may differ on delivery\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turbosmart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54496542064985,"sku":"TS-0203-1263","price":249.54,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/7765\/9225\/files\/turbosmart_kompact_plumb_back_single_piston_recirculating_dump_valve_1_1.jpg?v=1745543015","url":"https:\/\/www.rivalperformance.co.uk\/products\/turbosmart-kompact-shortie-plumb-back-recirculating-diverter-valve-audi-s3-quattro-8v","provider":"Rival Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
