Upgraded Construction:
The CTS Turbo diverter valve features upgraded construction compared to the factory diverter valve. The improved materials and design provide better durability and reliability, especially on tuned engines running higher boost pressures. The upgraded construction prevents the diaphragm failures and boost leaks common with worn factory diverter valves.
Improved Spring Rate:
The CTS Turbo diverter valve features an improved spring rate that handles higher boost levels better than the factory diverter valve. The stronger spring prevents the valve from opening prematurely under high boost, maintaining proper boost control. The improved spring rate is essential for tuned 1.8T engines with upgraded turbos or increased boost.
Eliminates Boost Leaks:
Factory diverter valves can fail over time, causing boost leaks that reduce power and cause poor throttle response. The CTS Turbo diverter valve eliminates these boost leaks with its upgraded construction and improved sealing. The result is consistent boost pressure and reliable performance.
