I have for sale my WMW Performance Blow off Valve. I had it for 4 months and a little under 4,000 miles before I switched it out.

Copy and pasted from WMW website:

Want a little extra for your turbo MINI Cooper S? WMW has a cheap but effect mod for you. This is our performance Blow off Valve or also known as diverter valve for your R55, R56, R57 MINI Cooper S. This is like no other blow off available for the MINI. Most other valves dump the boost to the atmosphere, this can cause a check engine light since the ecu wants to see the boost get recirculated. This valve is a direct replacement for the stock blow off valve that recirculates the boost. It has a stronger spring and actuator allowing it to open and close faster than the standard valve. This will allow you to build boost faster and on deceleration dump it faster. This will help eliminate turbo surge. For the price you can't go wrong.
This valve is not meant for Factory JCW stage 2, due to the different turbo no gains will be seen using this valve. We recommend the Forgve BOV for the JCW car and for any Cooper S 2011 and newer with N18 Engine.



I'm selling for $50 + shipping.

 

Why are you selling it ? Just curious, did you see a difference ? did it work correctly ?
did you have any CEL ?

Thanks.

 

Tag.....
Want the same questions answered and if Evil4130 doesn't take it.
Put me in line please...

 

Everything worked correctly & I did notice a difference when I installed the part. Not so much a power difference, but a throttle response difference. You can tell it builds the boost slightly faster. Nothing dramatic or anything, just better than stock. I didn't get any check engine lights at all. The housing is basically a stock housing with upgraded parts inside from WMW, so it won't trip a light. I ended up getting a different DV since I'm running a stage 3 tune and I'm going to get it Dyno adjusted soon. Just as insurance I guess.

 

I am going to have to pass, now I have to replace my hub bearings.

 

Thank you! Good luck with those bearings!

 

Ttt

 

Friday bump!

 

This is a good part. Definitely worth a buy. GFB DV+ is also good, but sitting on my shelf because U put my WMW DV and forge BOV adapter back on. Somebody buy this!

 

Thanks for praise! It really is a good part.
