Set of 4 Forge Motorsport adjustment springs for pop-off valve – Ø 35 mm
The Forge Motorsport 4-spring adjustment kit (35 mm diameter) for pop-off valves allows you to adapt the operation of a compatible valve to the configuration of the turbocharged engine. Its four stiffness levels let you adjust the valve’s behavior, particularly after a change in boost pressure.
A spring that is too soft can cause the valve to open improperly and result in a drop in pressure. Conversely, a spring that is too stiff may prevent the valve from opening when necessary. Mounting a stiffer spring does not, by itself, increase turbo pressure; it can only correct a drop caused by an unsuitable spring.
The choice of spring depends on the valve used and the engine configuration. The pressure ranges listed are selection guidelines, not guaranteed opening thresholds for all mountings. An excessively stiff setting can disrupt valve operation and damage the turbocharger.
