Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Forced Induction blow off valve ? ?

hey tours its the kid i was just wondering if we could put a blow off valve on our tours when its supercharged or not . plus can we put an intercooler in front of our fascia? i also heard on world tour that he has water injected. is that air to water cooled? i wanna get that pssssh sound thanks tours

On the edge of your rim there is a blow off valve. Just unscrew the cap and push the button. Should go psssh.
A blow off valve is only used in forced induction.

i know i just did it hahaha will it work on a s/c? thanks

1. Oh no...
2. Forced induction only for a safety/blow off valve (Which is not Bypass valve BTW)
3. Sure, anythings possible with some fabrication, time & money.
4. Yes
5. heheh... neither... Controlled water/alky mist into intake...
6. Let some air out of your head occasionally while driving. :p

Lets see...

Yes
Sure
Water injection(as I understand)sprays an ultra fine mist into the intake(before the engine after the S/C)to cool down the charge temps. Helps increase effiency of the engine I believe. Mark would be better to answer this more clearly
All you need for that 'pssssh' sound is a blow off valve......and forced induction of course.

1. hey tours its the kid
hmmm
2. i was just wondering if we could put a blow off valve on our tours when its supercharged or not .
Only works with forced induction, also there is a difference between a blow-off and a bypass.
Blow off valve's are normally considered to be "open atmospheric" and they release pressure into open air... hence the name.
A Bypass valve (which is what we would use along with pretty much any other MAF type car) opens in a closed loop fashion by releasign pressure into the incoming air stream acting as an air brake.
Both relieve compressor surge and excess pressure on the impeller during engine/compressor decceleration.
3. plus can we put an intercooler in front of our fascia?
Yeah just use your front license plate holder because thats the only way without a custom front bumper.
4. i also heard on world tour that he has water injected.
Still in testing stages and bugs are still being worked out.
5. is that air to water cooled?
What?
6. i wanna get that pssssh sound
I remember seeing a device awhile back that installs under your hood that makes a whoosh sound via speaker every time you coem off of the gas.
