Turbosmart BOV Kompact EM Plumb Back - BMW N20/N26 (VR23) 2011-2020
The Turbosmart BOV Kompact EM Plumb Back is an electronic blow off valve designed as a direct replacement for BMW models equipped with N20 or N26 engines. It recirculates excess boost pressure back into the intake pipe for emissions compliance and smooth operation. This valve delivers precise control, rapid response times, and reliable performance under high boost levels.
Key Features

- Plumb Back Design: Vents air directly back into the intake system via supplied 25mm silicone hose, maintaining factory-like operation without atmospheric venting.
- Direct OEM Fitment: Bolts on using factory mounting points and electrical connector for BMW N20/N26 turbo setups, no modifications needed.
- Tunable Springs: Includes 3mm and 7mm stainless steel springs to adjust opening pressure for stock or modified boost levels up to 250psi.
- Durable Construction: Investment cast aluminum body with anodized finish, Nomex reinforced diaphragm, and stainless hardware for long-term reliability.
Product Notes
- Compatible with factory ECU and boost control systems, no tuning required for basic operation.
- Inspect and replace factory crush washers during installation to prevent leaks.
- Ships in protective foam packaging to avoid damage during transit.

Forced Induction
Forced induction systems encompass every method of pushing air into an engine at greater than atmospheric pressure, including turbochargers driven by exhaust energy, superchargers driven mechanically by the crankshaft, and prochargers using centrifugal designs belt-driven at higher ratios than traditional roots-type blowers, with each approach delivering a significant increase in air mass per cylinder fill that allows proportionally more fuel to be burned and more power to be produced without increasing engine displacement. Adding 10 PSI of boost pressure to a naturally aspirated engine can increase power output by 50 to 70 percent depending on the engine's breathing efficiency and the quality of the supporting hardware, making forced induction the most power-dense modification available relative to cost and complexity. This collection covers complete forced induction systems, turbocharger and supercharger hardware, intercoolers, blow-off valves, wastegates, and supporting component...
