Turbosmart Blow Off Valve for Ford Focus RS (2016) Kompact Shortie Dual Port
Description
TS-0203-1064

The Turbosmart Kompact Shortie VR08 suits the 2016 Ford Focus RS. This easy-to-install 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 high boost, and quiet operation at low boost. 

The Kompact Shortie Blow-Off Valve for the Focus RS has been developed with the Focus’s high boost pressure in mind, with the goal to improve performance and durability. Plastic OEM blow-off valves like those on the RS have a track record of failures – they leak, and they become brittle with age until they eventually crack, causing serious problems. Producing around 23 PSI of boost pressure in standard form, the Focus is already pushing the boundaries of its standard plastic blow-off valve – and there’s not much room to turn the boost up before the standard valve will struggle to keep up.

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.

Turbosmart
Turbosmart is a world leading manufacturer in performance accessories for forced induction vehicles. Turbosmart engineers, builds and track tests all of the products in-house to make sure that they are continually producing the highest quality blowoff valves, wastegates, boost controllers, gauges, pressure regulators, and hoses for both the track and the street. Turbosmart is the concatenation of two words that symbolizes what we want to achieve as a brand; to make turbo control smarter. We believe that every product that we produce creates a new level of efficient boost control for turbo vehicles, prolonging the life of turbocharged vehicles. Established in 1997, Turbosmart was built on humble beginnings. Designed with a pure passion for race performance, the very first product, a BOV Type I was produced by hand on a steel lathe, by our CEO & Founder Nic Cooper from a small garage in Sydney, Australia. For many years the company witnessed significant success on a local scene, quickly becoming one of the most prolific names amongst industry professionals as a strong product with reliable boost control. It wasn’t long before the businesses fame spread and exports started into other markets. In 2003, only after a short presence of exports to the US market, Turbosmart won Best Performance Product Runner-Up at SEMA. In 2007 the business expanded operations, establishing a North American office to handle US expansion. Over that time Turbosmart USA has taken on the race and aftermarket industry as one of the most reptuable brands, extending the Turbosmart presence as one of the most trusted in the market. In 2014 Turbosmart continued to expand its dominance in boost control by implementing a European office in the UK. Although the business was warned about a lack of market success for new competitors, the business forged ahead and is now widely accepted as one of the best in the market for motoring enthusiasts across the Euro market. In 2015, Turbosmart outgrew its 6,500ft2 manufacturing plant, and the business moved to a brand new 27,000ft2 facility in the west of Sydney, Australia to help handle the growing market demand. As of 2018 Turbosmart exports to over 50 countries around the globe and continues to build up the accolades of industry awards from various associations, including taking a massive 6 Awards at SEMA 2018 for their revolutionary Gen-V Wastegate range.
