Install upgraded diverter valve with blow off valve on my Mercedes-Benz C250 Coupe (W204 C204 C250). Will help maintain turbo boost between shifts and give off a cool turbo blow off sound!

Hey Alex, if I got a resonator delete on my c 300 2016 and got a blow off valve do you think it would sound good ?

@m.anthonyc.8761 3 жыл бұрын

To describe it a little more accurately would be a diverter valve on a factory turbo charged system diverts the boost air back into the air intake or suction side of turbo to help keep the turbine spinning the same direction..... and on some vehicles you can just disconnect the hose that goes back into the intake where the air is diverted and then pull it off and plug the hole where the hose was removed from suction side of turbo that would now have a hole in it and that would function exactly the same way as a blow off valve would because its now not "Diverting" but now its "Blowing Off" (Giggity) You may get a check engine light because the sensors won't be picking up the additional air that should be going back into the suction side of the turbo.

Hey, I installed the turbo tuning muffler delete v2 and no sound difference occurred. Then I just installed the gfb vta blow off valve and nothing changed as well. I am sure I have the vta and put motor oil exactly how you did in the video. Do you think I am having a boost leak of some sort? This is really puzzling to me.

@TheFlexxGarage 3 жыл бұрын

Muffler delete doesn’t give off a whooshing sound. Just a tad more noise. Vta will give a whoosing sound only if the system detects excess air in the system that needs to be purged. So you either don’t have enough air coming into your system or you’re leaking air.

@TheFlexxGarage 3 ай бұрын

I’ve never had a single issue using BOVs on all my cars, when properly installed. 99% of the time, misfires aren’t caused by BOV. How do you know it’s the blow off valve? Did you put the stock diverter back on and everything was fine? Cause that the only way to know. If you put the stock DV back on, clear the misfire codes, drive around, and if there’s still a misfire, then you have a misfire issue you need to plug in an OB2 reader and get the fault code so you truly know what’s the issue.

Yeah. I do.

I get tons of companies sending me stuff but i only choose to work with companies I trust and with products I would (or was already planning to) put on my cars. Second, c250 is tough to get “throaty” cause it’s a 4cyl engine. However, I find the best and legal way is to delete the second cat and middle resonator. The main cat is still on the car so the car is still legal. And then replace the stock muffler with an aggressive straight-through style muffler. I did a video on it already. It’s on my channel. If you want throaty and loud, then you would have to delete everything after the main cat. And just run a straight pipe to the tip. However, that’s illegal in most states unless you plan on using your car for off-road purposes only.
