T9203 Hybrid Dual Outlet Valve (3 Valves in one, diverter valve/ BOV)

Description The Hybrid is Back! Celebrating 20 Years Since the World?s First Dual Outlet Blow-Off Valve In a time before Justin Bieber, Y2K, and even Google, the year is 1998 and GFB?s founding engineer John Adrian is so sick of his new WRX stalling with an atmosphere-venting BOV he decided he didn?t want to live in a world any longer without a dual port BOV? ?so he invented it! Known as the ?Hybrid?, this world-first became the flagship model of the newly formed company Go Fast Bits. The two venting ports of this revolutionary valve were staged on the body such that the recirc port opened before the atmo port, helping to prevent backfiring and stalling on cars with a MAF sensor, whilst still giving the signature blow off sound when the car is driven harder. This innovation was so successful that the technology has since been adopted by almost every other BOV brand on the market. The Hybrid then went on to evolve into GFB?s next world-first, the venting bias adjustable BOV now known as the Respons TMS, and then to the electronically adjustable version, the Deceptor Pro. With the spotlight focused on these current products, the Hybrid has been absent from the market for some time, but in celebration of the 20 years since the invention of one of the most influential BOVs the turbo world has seen, GFB is bringing the Hybrid back! And as a fitting birthday present, the importance of the dual-port venting system and the new Hybrid valve was recognized from a field of 3000 entries by a panel of international judges and presented with a Global Media Award at the 2017 SEMA show. With the same staged venting outlets as the original, but now with the ability to configure for full recirc, full atmosphere, or 50/50 venting, and a huge range of direct bolt-on kits for popular vehicles, the new Hybrid offers all the benefits of dual port venting, at an affordable price.

Warranty policy

All products are backed by unlimited mileage and one (1) Year, Limited Warranty. Please read terms and conditions for full description.

Before fitting the new part, you MUST find the reason why turbocharger FAILED and CORRECT it. Fitting a new turbo will only result the same failure. Less than 10% of turbocharger failures, are due to the turbo itself, in most cases failures are caused by outside influence. Most common causes of consequential failure (NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY) are listed below. All new Kott Turbo Works products are backed by a one (1) Year Limited Warranty. The one (1) Year Limited Warranty covers all manufacturer defects. Warranty does not cover labor recovery, accommodation, or any other costs. Turbochargers must be returned for a detailed warranty inspection. Any modification to the product voids the one (1) Year Limited Warranty. The one (1) Year Limited Warranty does not cover :

Failure to provide installation documents from repair facility. (Self/parking lot installs)
Failure to perform and document scheduled maintenance on time.
Seaping/leaking oil out of compression outlet, caused by excesive BLOW BY or clogged crankcase FILTER.
Failures due to Improper installation or maintenance, restricted oil feed pipe, damaged oil pump, low oil level, metal particles or carbon present, faulty DPF filters and/or EGR valves, contaminated lubricant, oil starvation.
Using liquid gasket or sealing compounds
White deposit present on exhaust parts due to excessive engine oil burn.
Over speeding, defective intercooler and or compression piping, stuck VGT, Remap
Foreign object and physical damage, defective or dirty air filter and supply pipes.

Due to the intricacies involved in warranty process and the industry standard protocol regarding the inspection of parts and turnaround time, we will not offer free replacements prior to full inspection and analysis. To minimize potential downtime for our customers, we strongly recommend the purchase of replacement parts as a proactive measure. We kindly request your understanding in this matter.

Turbochargers: Bent or broken anything except turbine shaft. Bent, broken or damaged housing.
Core has to be sent with copy of purchase order, in order to know for which turbo we have to issue the refund, KTW won’t know who returned it, without proper documentation.
Core must be like-for-like.

Installation tips

Most common misdiagnosis.

Oil leaks can be caused by a variety of factors, the main factor being incorrect pressure within the compressor and turbine housings, which is usually caused by:

Blockages to the air intake filter and/or hoses.
Excessive crank case pressure (blow-by from worn piston rings/bores)
Blockages in the exhaust system
Repeated hot engine shutdowns leading to carbon deposits (coke) in the centre housing
Dirty crankcase filter
Use of silicon sealant / incorrect gasket, twisted, bent or trapped oil return pipe

Most common turbocharger failure causes on semi trucks:

Foreign object damage – Broken off engine components, e.g. valves (D13), fragments of damaged pistons or injector tips, EGR block off plates.
Oil contamination – High carbon build up present in the engine can quickly contaminate new oil, contamination of new oil while servicing.
Degrading oil – excessive temperatures or extended service intervals.
Internal engine leaks – fuel or coolant mixing with oil supply.
Turbocharger overspeeding – Engine modifications including ‘chipping’ or ‘over-fuelling, bad program installed if EGR/DPF delete was performed, worn injectors. Tear in the air hose or the hose becoming completely detached. Restrictions in the air intake filter or pipe work. Air leaks between compressor and engine.
Lack of lubrication –

1. Engine left idle for long periods, especially during cold weather
2. Oil feed pipes containing bends or kinks
3. Lack of maintenance, oil change intervals should be shortened as engine gets old.
4. Insufficient oil in the sump
5. Incorrect oil inlet gasket used leading to restriction in oil supply
6. Build-up (coking) / carbon deposits in the oil feed pipe
7. Applying silicone to the oil inlet gasket causing blockages
8. Sludge or coke build up in bearing housing from hot shutdowns
9. Failure to prime the turbo with oil before initial run
