| Today LLTeK announced the
release of a new user-adjustable combined divertor and blow-off valve designed
for Audi and VW Turbo motors, for use with pre and post "Drive by
Wire" Series cars.
 The new D-BOV (Divertor/ Blow-Off Valve)
is first and foremost a high performance Divertor Valve. What distinguishes the
D-BOV valve from the competition is the unlimited number of configurations
available. You will decide the pressure level at which excess air will be
released and you will set the limits on how much air will be released. You can
also adjust the noise level of the "Blow-Off". Every Audi
enthusiast's dream has now come true. The ultra-engineered LLTeK D-BOV produces
maximum throttle response and power in FULL BLAST mode and with a flick of the
wrist, your car can run quiet for street use. The D-BOV is ultra high quality.
No plastics are used.
 The stock OEM Divertor valve
Audi uses in its cars has never been widely accepted by the true enthusiast.
Upgrading this valve has always been mandatory for high performance driving.
Now you get a beautifully engineered alloy Divertor valve with full user
selectable BOV levels with incremental ratchet style adjustment. One 4th
generation product accomplishes 2 basic functions; a Divertor upgrade and a
fully adjustable BOV tuned for Audi cars whether in a non-Drive-by-wire or a
Drive-by-wire environment.
The D-BOV has two venting outlets that are "staged". Other
competitive valves use one stage and therefore do not function well in a DBW
(drive by wire) Audi environment. The first "recirculation stage" is
positioned at the bottom of the valve so it will vent with the slightest
movement of the piston. The second "trumpet stage" is positioned
precisely 4 mm higher so it opens only after the recirculation port. With
normal hybrid valves, the split is approximately 40%/60% (but it is always
fixed) between vented to atmosphere air and recirculation to outlet
respectively. With Type D-BOV, the ratio is infinitely variable.
Here is how it works: During light throttle lift-offs when cruising with your
LLteK equipped Audi, the primary piston will only lift 4 - 6 mm; therefore the
majority of air is recirculated to inlet and only a little noise will be heard
(unless you adjust otherwise). However, when you lift-off after hard
acceleration, two magical events occur. First, your "pressurized"
(boosted) air must escape both the inlet pipe and the intercooler (even high
performance intercoolers), opening the piston and giving a loud
"whoosh".* Within
seconds the pressure is evacuated from the inlet system allowing the Turbo to
continue to spin and pump air through the valve. Even though the car is venting
to atmosphere, a sufficient volume of air goes to inlet and passes through the
air flow metering system, reducing hesitation (the lean Audi second) or
backfire.
Your Audi ECU (or modified Audi ECU) will always deliver fuel to suit the
flowthrough air to inlet, even though much has been vented to atmosphere for a
split second. Because of the unique 2 stage design, once pressure is evacuated
from the system, the piston begins to close, forcing additional air back to the
recirculating outlet, further reducing the chance of hesitation and backfiring.
And now you control the process, the blow-off noise, the timing, and the
between shift venting and noise. The Type D-BOV is the Audi Divertor solution
and BOV all in one.
