Turbosmart - Kompact Shortie Dual Port BOV - -3AN - 2016+ Ford Focus RS
The Turbosmart Kompact Shortie VR08 is designed specifically for the 2016 Ford Focus RS. Its straightforward installation process replaces the factory plastic blow-off valve and provides increased turbo response and decreased compressor surge. As a Dual Port valve, it offers both a 50-50 split between recirculation and vent-to-atmosphere, delivering the iconic vent-to-atmosphere sound at high boost and a quieter operation at low boost.
The Kompact Shortie BOV for the Focus RS was designed specifically for the car's high boost pressure to enhance performance and durability. Unlike the plastic OEM valves commonly used on the RS, which have a high rate of failures and become brittle with age, this BOV is built to last. With standard form boost pressure of around 23 PSI, the Focus is already testing the limits of its plastic valve. Increasing the boost further would strain the standard valve's capabilities.
Turbosmart’s Kompact Shortie is constructed of billet aluminium, rather than plastic. Its brass piston is both strong and light, and each BOV is individually matched with the right piston to ensure the best fit, meaning there’s no need for an O-ring to seal the body against the piston. This gives the Shortie unsurpassed durability and responsiveness, with less maintenance required than aftermarket BOVs that use piston sealing O-rings.
The Kompact Shortie for the Focus RS can be had in both Dual Port and Plumb Back versions. The Plumb Back is a fully recirculating blow-off valve that offers a similar sound volume to the standard valve, so you can have all the performance of a Turbosmart blow-off valve, while flying under the radar. The Dual Port features a split operation between recirculating and venting to atmosphere, providing quiet operation at low boost, and head-turning vent-to-atmosphere sound at high boost – a great complement to the Focus’s rally fighter character. The Kompact Shortie for the Focus RS features enlarged ports compared to previous Shorties, giving the RS the flow it needs.
These direct replacement blow-off valves offer an easy performance improvement without the need for custom fabrication or special tools. It’s yet another addition to Turbosmart’s ever expanding range of parts for Ford’s latest EcoBoost range of vehicles.
