Identify Diverter valve location  
1
Take note of the orientation of the adapter plate with the  
trapezoid passage to be placed against the matching port on the  
charge pipe and the circle port to be against the BOV. Ensure O-  
rings are in place and fit together with the four supplied bolts.  
Identify the location of the factory BOV assembly, The Hyundai  
i30N factory bypass valve is located under the airbox of the  
vehicle, Remove the factory air box to allow access for the  
fitment.  
It may be possible to access the valve from underneath the  
vehicle.  
NOTE!  
It may be required to remove auxiliary components to  
access the diverter valve, ensure you consult your local  
specialist or a service manual for correct disassembly  
procedures.

Align your new Turbosmart Kompact BOV with the flange on the  
charge pipe, the bolt pattern will only allow the BOV to be fitted  
in one direction, ensure Both O-rings are correctly seated in their

Remove the recirculation hose from the valve by loosening the  
hose clamp, similarly, remove the signal hose from the top of the  
Recirculation hose  
Re attached the recirculation hose onto the BOV and tighten the  
hose clamp. Align the swivel nipple on the cap of the BOV and  
attach the signal hose.  
Congratulations, your Turbosmart Kompact Series BOV is  
installed and ready for use. Double check all connections and  
mounting screws. Start your engine and check for leaks.

Remove the four bolts holding the diverter valve to the charge  
pipe and remove from the engine bay.

ADJUSTING YOUR BOV (DUAL PORT ONLY)  
The aim of the adjustment on the Dual port is to make sure that the piston is hard closed at idle and that the piston closes fast enough  
to minimise backfiring and not stall the engine. In most cases, the cap is in the correct position from factory.  
INSTALL THE BOV WITH THE FACTORY SETTING FIRST BEFORE PERFORMING ANY ADJUSTMENT.  
Adjustment to the BOV is made by rotating the cap. To increase the spring force on the piston, rotate the cap clockwise in the direction  
of hard as marked on the top of the cap. To decrease the spring force on the piston, rotate the cap anticlockwise in the direction of  
soft as marked on the top of the cap - CAUTION - Do not rotate the cap beyond the O-Ring groove.  
Start with the BOV cap at the maximum soft position (The indicator O-Ring should be completely covered by the edge of the cap)  
With the engine at idle the exhaust port should be closed off by the piston the piston should be hard against the seat and not  
floating or moving  
Free rev the engine and back off quickly, the engine should return to normal idle speed if the engine drops below idle or stalls  
increase the spring tension by one turn  
Repeat this process until the engine free revs and returns to normal idle speed  
Test drive the car and ensure that when decelerating or changing gears that the engine has minimal backfiring and no stalling. If  
backfiring is excessive or stalling is noticed then check all connections made during the installation, otherwise increase the spring  
tension  
TROUBLE SHOOTING  
The following points should be checked if you find that your engine is dipping below normal idle, stalling or if the BOV is functioning  
poorly. Please note: the following checks will cure 99% of problems experienced with a BOV.  
-
Check the vacuum hose for splits, cracks, loose connection, kinking or any obstruction old or fatigued hose may collapse  
under vacuum causing an obstruction.  
-
With the engine running remove the vacuum / boost hose from the nipple in the cap of the BOV, there should a loud hissing  
sound. The engine should idle poorly, double check by covering the end of the hose with your finger otherwise the hose is  
blocked.  
-
-
-
Check to see if the BOV is blocked or contaminated with dirt or debris.  
Ensure that the vacuum / boost source is not shared and that the vacuum source is directly from the inlet manifold.  
Check the seal between the charge pipe flange and the BOV. Make sure the supplied O-Rings are installed properly and  
the BOV Flange is secured on the compressor cover flange with the 3 supplied screws.  
Ensure the spring clamps are secured on silicon hoses and fittings.  
If the valve does not open properly or is slow to react, it could be due to the mapping of the drive by wire system from such  
things as aftermarket chips and engine tunes. Check with the tuner that the mapping of the throttle is the same as OEM.  
The valve may not open if the engine is just free reved. Check that the valve operates by driving the vehicle.
