Question:

Can I use a blow off valve with a nonturbo car?

I drive a 08 lancer and I want to add a SRI. Can I produce the blow off valve sound like a turbo?

Answer:

yes but it wont sound as crisp but it will have that same ingredient
confidently yes. different positions producing different sounds.put it the way you like. i have used this before.
lololol (not at question just at other responses). NO u can't dude, a blow off valve is a pressure release system for turbos, Its purpose is to prevent compressor surge, its is a vacuum-actuated valve designed to release pressure in the intake system of a turbocharged car when the throttle is lifted or closed, any built up pressure from the impeller once the throttle is lifted the blow off valve releases the air to the atmosphere, you can buy different trumpets for a different sounds effect, engines that are have a turbo but no blow off valve have what is called a diverter valve that recycles the air pressure back into the air intake... If you mean a Fujita SRI exhaust system then it will just have a nicer deep tone, not a harsh high-pitched sound like the other rice burner exhaust systems..
