Information Blow Off Valves?

So i was looking for car parts and i was using my favorite website, and i was looking at turbos which are wicked costly. But i saw some blow off valves which i have heard about before. But i was wondering if you need a turbo in order to have a blow off valve installed into your car. And if you don't my next question would be is it hard to put one in and how?? Thank you for your time..

Answer:

A blowoff valve goes onto your intake or the piping from your turbocharger to make sure that you dont run to much pressure they are adjustable to whatever pressure you desire. Usually people running a positive displacement blower or a turbochargers run them. That being said I'm sure that you could put one on your car but without a power adder it would never blow off. Except in the case of a intake manifold overpressure such as a backfire.
