The Turbosmart Kompact Shortie EVR07 suits the 2014-current Renault Clio RS 200 1.6T. This easy-to-install and durable replacement for the fragile plastic OEM blow-off valve offers improved turbo response and reduced compressor surge.
The Dual Port is a 50-50 recirculation/vent-to-atmosphere valve for that classic vent-to-atmosphere sound at significant boost and quiet operation at low boost.
The standard valve can bleed boost, and it will struggle to keep up if you’re chasing more power. The plastic construction becomes brittle and can eventually crack, causing significant boost leaks.
Turbosmart’s Kompact provides race-bred capability in a bolt-on replacement for Clio’s factory BOV. A lightweight piston, precisely matched to each valve body, ensures excellent response and reliability. Because of the acceptable tolerance between the piston and bore, the Shortie does not need an O-ring between the body and piston to seal the BOV. This enhances response, reduces required maintenance and improves long-term durability.
The product includes a Turbosmart Boost Reference Adapter, which provides access to a boost reference without destructive methods, such as tapping into the manifold. This means the modification is completely reversible and necessary when the time comes to sell your car.
