Turbosmart Shortie Kompact Series valves have been specifically designed to suit BorgWarner EFR and KKK turbos. They also fit the popular Ford Ecoboost engines.
Unlike the standard, plastic valves that use un-reinforced diaphragms and are known to crack under increased boost, the new BW/KKK/Ecoboost Kompact valves use O-Ring sealed piston which, coupled with their billet aluminium construction give them over 30PSI boost handling capability.
Designed as a bolt-on replacement of the factory valve on all BorgWarner EFR, KKK and most Ecoboost turbos, the Kompact Shortie Plumb Back provides better boost response and greater boost handling capability.
Included with each Kompact Shortie kit is:
Model specific valve, Straight and Banjo Nipples, Mounting screws and Spring clamps.

Turbosmart Blow Off Valves - Kompact Shortie: Like all Turbosmart blowoff valves, the new Kompact Shorties have been machined in-house, fromsolid billet aluminium. Keeping the process in-house, ensures only thebest quality, and none of the cracking or leaking that plague thefactory plastic valves. Like their predecessors, they’ve beenengineered with a light-weight, brass/aluminium, two-piece piston.Carefully engineered springs make these the most responsive valves oftheir kind.
The Kompact Shortie fits a huge range of turbos, and their tinydimensions make them a breeze to fit. To make things even easier,Shorties are supplied with both a swivel “banjo” nipple and a straightnipple, meaning you can tailor the valve to better suit yourapplication. Larger o-rings have been fitted in the base to aid ease ofinstallation – another modification made after talking to ourauthorized dealers and installers.
Small design means Shortie is easy to install. All billet construction,and well-designed internals mean it will hold as much boost as you wantto throw at it, for as long as you need it to. The Plumb Back versionis as quiet as a factory valve, or if you’re looking to make a littlenoise, the Dual Port version’s superior flow characteristics willsafely provide that BOV sound you’re looking for. The new twin fixedports flow more than ever before. You just can’t lose with Turbosmart’sShortie.
