Performance - Mini Clubman R55 (2007-2014)

This Blow Off valve is for the Peugeot / BMW Mini 1.6 Turbo engines, as found in the Peugeot 207/307/308 GT Turbo and BMW Mini Cooper S Turbo fitted with the N14 engines, fits: MiniSecond generation (R55/R56/R57/R58/R59) (2006–2015)R55 ClubmanPre LCI 2007-2009 N14/N18 R56 HatchbackPre LCI 2007-2009 N14R57 ConvertibleLCI 2010-2014Peugeot207This valve is recommended for any vehicle where the boost pressure has been increased by an ECU software upgrade and for unmodified vehicles operating in warmer climates, as a solution to the many failures that have occurred. The most common complaint on the OEM solenoid valve is a split diaphragm preventing the valve from opening fully, or not at all. This doesn’t always result in a check engine light as the valve can still be blown open by the boost pressure. We have seen many valves with this problem .The other problem is that diaphragm retaining ring is made from very thin plastic that goes brittle with heat cycles, and eventually fails. This prevents the diaphragm from sealing with the same problems as mentioned above. This particular failure also results in the valve falling apart upon removal from the turbo, though in extreme cases bits of plastic can enter the turbo and destroy it. (see image above). Our alternative is a fully engineered solution offering both significantly improved reliability .Our valve is piston based , with no diaphragm to fail, and of all aluminium construction, it replaces the original unit with a pressure/vacuum operated piston valve that still also retains the desirable OEM ECU control over valve actuation. The valve has been proved on the VAG scene for many years. The spring is interchangeable for different levels of boost, and the solenoid is plug and play with the wiring harness which is included.   Product Code Fitment FM207V Recirc Valve N14 Engines Cooper S 2007-10, JCW Cooper S 2007-2012 FMDVR60R Recirc Valve N18 Engines Cooper S 2011 On, JCW Cooper S 2013 onwards FMDVMCS Blow Off Adaptor Plate For 2007/8 Cooper S Turbo only FMDVR56A Blow Off Valve N14 Engines Cooper S 2007-10, JCW Cooper S 2007-2012 FMDVR60A Blow Off Valve N18 Engines Cooper S 2011 On, JCW Cooper S 2013 onwards     In The Box:1 x FMDVR56A Valve1 x Mini Wiring Harness1 x Solenoid, Bracket, and Screws1 x Mini Vacuum Tap1 x Uprated Blue Spring10 x Cable Ties1 x 2000mm of 4mm Vacuum Tube3 x M6 x 35 Socket Cap Bolts1 x M5 x 35 Self Tapper Screw1 x Instructions1 x Forge Keyring and Sticker   This product is available in machined alloy finish only   Please Note: In line with our policy to constantly review, revise, and improve our product range, the appearance of the product you receive may differ from the one advertised.

The FMDVMCS is a sandwich type adaptor that fits between the existing electrical solenoid and the turbo charger housing on the BMW Mini Cooper S N14 engines 2007/08(R56/57 *), Peugeot 1.6 turbo engines as found in the 207 and GTI , 208 GTI, 307, 308 and Citroen DS3. fits: CitroënC5DS3(Pre 2016 Only)MiniSecond generation (R55/R56/R57/R58/R59) (2006–2015)R55 ClubmanPre LCI 2007-2009 N14/N18 R56 HatchbackPre LCI 2007-2009 N14R57 ConvertibleLCI 2010-2014Peugeot207 On these engines, built into the turbocharger housing, is a bypass facility. This allows charge air to be recirculated around the turbo charger from the boost side back to the intake side. This recirculation path is opened and closed by means of an electrical connection from the engine management, to a solenoid that is mounted on the turbocharger housing. As you accelerate, the turbo charger vanes are spinning and boost pressure is increased, literally blowing into the engine cylinders. Then when you change gear, you take you foot off the accelerator momentarily, select the next gear, and accelerate again. As you take your foot off the accelerator the throttle valve to the engine closes. The problem here is that during this process the turbo is still spinning and the boost pressure that it is producing has no where to go. (This is a bit like putting you hand over a hair dryer so the air cannot get out) What happens at this point is the turbo starts to stall, the spinning vanes slow down (incurring alot of stress) and the boost pressure drops. When you open the throttle valve again by pushing down on the accelerator (demanding more power) the turbo has lost its momentum, boost pressure and there is a pause or a "Lag" before the engine is producing the required power once again. To combat this loss of power and stress on the turbo, a recirculation or diverter valve is used. On the Mini, when the throttle valve closes, the engine management opens the recirculation route around the turbo. This gives the charge air an alternative route and allows the turbocharger to keep spinning so that when you accelerate again there is no "lag" or waiting period. This system works well and is adopted by nearly all vehicle manufacturers on turbo charged petrol engine applications. The only downside to this system is that a turbo chargers produce heat. (The hot air that leaves a turbo is cooled by passing it through an intercooler before it enters the engine. The cooler the air the more power is produced). By recirculating the hot air back into the intake side of a turbo the temperatures increase. This is where the Blow Off or Dump valve plays its part. By expelling the charge air to atmosphere rather than recirculating it, you do not increase the intake air temperature but you do allow the turbo to keep spinning. The side effect which is unacceptable to most vehicle manufacturers is the noise of the valve expelling the air. By fitting the FMDVMCS between the existing solenoid and the turbo housing (this involves removing only 3 bolts) the air is re-directed to atmosphere rather than recirculated. It should be noted that the engine management also uses this valve to decrease engine power when necessary. An example of this is by the (DSC) Dynamic Stability Control system. Although you would not normally hear this occurring, when a blow off adaptor is fitted you may well hear the air being expelled when the DSC operates (going too fast around a bend for example).   In The Box1 x FMDVMCS Adaptor3 x Socket Cap Bolts1 x Instructions1 x Forge Sticker In order that you purchase the correct valve for your vehicle please refer to the fitment table below before ordering.

Now you can fine tune your Blow Off/Diverter Valve to the exact needs of your engine with this complete tuning kit. If you are finding that the valve is dumping more than required, or if you are losing boost pressure it is normally an indication that a stronger spring is required. Alternatively, if the valve is failing to dump it may be necessary to install a weaker spring. Please note that fitting a stronger spring into a valve will not increase boost pressure, unless existing pressure is being lost. Failure to allow the valve to operate by installing a spring which is too strong, may cause damage to the turbocharger. Please also note that the red coded springs should not be installed in the DVR or DV007 diaphragm valves.  Valve Spring color coding: Green - 5-15 PSI, Yellow - 15-23 PSI, Blue - 23-30 PSI, Red - 30 + PSI.*The above figures are estimates only and should only be considered as a guideline* Note: Serious or fatal damage may occur to the engine and associated components if this product is incorrectly matched to the individual engine requirements. Forge Motorsport nor any of it’s authorised distributors can assume any responsibility for any adverse effects resulting from the installation of this product.  Please contact us if you are uncertain whether this kit is suitable for your valve. *Please Note - The colours of the springs illustrated may differ to what you receive.
