Re: quick question

no.

i would highly suggest you do some research on these trucks and turbos in general. Based on your questions i'm guessing this is your first turbo vehicle. Before you go throwing mods at it, and deciding to turn your boost way up to see how fast your truck gets - stop and read up on what you have. It'll do you a world of good.

Re: quick question

Listen to Renz.. and a blow off valve has nothing to do with controlling boost.

A blow-off valve is mounted in the intake plumbing between the
turbocharger compressor and the throttle plate. The blow-off valve is a
second safety measure against the turbocharger over-boosting and damaging
the engine.

The blow-off valve is more commonly used to keep the turbocharger spinning
when the throttle plate is suddenly closed. When the turbocharger is
generating maximum boost pressure at full throttle and then the throttle
is suddenly closed, compressed air coming from the compressor slams
against the throttle, generating extremely high pressures that travel
backwards to the compressor stopping the compressor from spinning. When
the throttle plate is again opened, the engine must spool the turbocharger
shaft again. The effects of this high pressure can also be very damaging
to the turbocharger.
