HKS style SSQV Dump
Valve
The Super Sequential Blow-Off Valve
(SSQV) is a dual stage pull-type relief dump valve. Unlike
traditional push type dump valves, the SSQV will not leak under any
level of boost because the boost pressure in the chamber keeps the
valve closed against its seat. The SSQV releases excess boost when
there is a pressure alteration in the valve, not by the rate of
boost pressure or vacuum in the line. This means you get a quick
valve response and complete closure during idle. Many competitors
use a push-type blow-off valve design with a large valve to
accommodate high boost / high horsepower applications. These large
valves react slowly and require high pressure to open. They are not
able to activate and prevent compressor surge at light-load
conditions. On the other hand, smaller, fast reacting push-type
valves do not discharge the airflow capacity required for high
horsepower applications and tend to slowly open and leak as boost
pressure overpowers the spring. For the best of both worlds, our
SSQV incorporates a small primary valve for ultra quick activation,
and a larger secondary valve for additional discharge capacity. The
SSQV is engineered to initially open the small primary valve at
light throttle and load conditions (Like in the second picture),
then sequentially opens the secondary valve for additional relief
capacity when you floor it. The SSQV is made of polished billet
aluminium, which ensures long-term durability and stays looking
great for years.
Decent SSQV dump valves like ours
have a unique sound unlike cheaper piston or diaphragm dump valves.
This is due to the triple-fin discharge port design. Because if its
shape and size it makes a powerful, unique and aggressive blow-off
sound.
Our SSQV dump valves are very
similar in sound, size and finish to more expensive SSQV dump
valves. The only differences being ours are half the price.
