its your waste gate releasing pressure from your turbo
Amazingly pointless. The blow off valve is there to release intake pressure if you have the turbo spinning and then go off the throttle suddenly. If you haven't got a turbo there's no intake pressure to release if you go off the throttle.
Install a blow off valve, it releases excess pressure from the intake side of the turbo
My car, a 2008 Audi A4 Turbo was experiencing a cyclical chirping noise, similar to a noisy fan belt ( which it does not have). A defective PCV valve was found , however, the car after being repaired is still making that noise.
You can, but it'd be amazingly pointless. The blow valve is needed on turbo engines to release the pressure that can build up if the driver goes off the throttle quickly and the engine revs drops fast. W/o a turbo you won't get any pressure build-up so there's no use for a blow valve.
The turbo blow off valve works by:If the throttle returns to idle while at high boost the valve opens and relives the pressure preventing turbo damage and speeding boost recovery time.This is done by use of a over pressure sensorOr by use of a throttle position and boost pressure sensor working together.
erm... the club 1.6 8v is a petrol non turbo right?! to need a dump valve you need a turbo, a dump valve is there to release the pressure that the turbo builds up. you can always look for a fake dump valve kit around £180 mark i think
You could mount it, but there is no pressure to blow off.
I use to have this problem, Most of the time the noise that make it sound like a whistle or Turbo noise. Its the seals are leaking its ether header or Manafold. Get a new gasket for ether of those. Use a Brake Spray to test it out!
No, but if the valve is intended to blow at high pressure and you have it connected to the negative pressure of a NA engine intake so it will never open. You could use a brass plug instead as this is much cheaper and will provide the same functionality. With out a turbo making boost, there is nothing to "blow off"
Where would you put a blow off valve on a non turbo, and what would it blow off? So the answer is no.
A supercharger is constantly spoiled from pulleys even at idle. This additional air pressure must be released at idle to prevent excess idle surge. The air release typically is performed through a bypass valve (can be replaced with blow off valve) and the air escaping tends to create a whistle. The remaing air sounds from pressure release in between shift points are identical to the process/sounds in which a turbo releases excess air pressure. However, a turbo is exhaust driven and the excess surge in pressure does not occur at idle which is why they are much quieter when sitting still.
