Turbosmart BOV Kompact EM Plumb Back VR11 - BMW N55 M2 / X4 M40i 2016-2018
The Turbosmart BOV Kompact EM Plumb Back VR11 is an electronically controlled blow-off valve designed for BMW N55 turbo engines in 2016-2018 M2 and X4 M40i models. It recirculates excess boost pressure silently into the intake pipe to protect the turbo from compressor surge during shifts. This direct-fit upgrade delivers precise boost management for consistent power delivery and extended turbo life.
Key Features
