This EPMAN Diesel Funnel Dump Valve Kit is a versatile solution for turbo diesel engines, specifically engineered to eliminate compressor surge and reduce back pressure created during gear shifts or deceleration. When the throttle is closed, excessive pressure builds up, causing turbo cavitation. The funnel dump valve provides sufficient airflow to release this pressure quickly, improving boost response between gear changes and reducing turbo wear.
