Diaphragms have their place (we use them in our wastegates), as they offer low friction and good sealing capability. However, a rolling diaphragm is only designed to receive a net pressure on one side, which essentially “inflates” it against the walls of the chamber in which it resides, exactly how it is used in a wastegate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHowever, a BOV is exposed to frequent pressure reversals – every time you accelerate and lift off.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor a diaphragm, this means it is repeatedly collapsing on itself under boost, then inflating under vacuum. Eventually, this leads to diaphragm failure. A piston on the other hand is immune to this issue, and will continue to operate under the most extreme pressure, temperature, and cyclic conditions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe unique mounting method of the SV52 is one of the ways we’ve been able to save unnecessary bulk.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBy eliminating the v-band style mount, the piston and its venting ports can sit much lower, which reduces the overall height to a number others can’t match.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGFB SV52 50mm BOV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGFB 50mm V-Band Blow off Valve – GFB SV52\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGFB 5552 SV52 Blanking Plate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGFB 6464-2 Turbosmart Adaptor (V-Band)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGFB 6464-3 TiAL Adaptor (V-Band)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Autech Store","offers":[{"title":"GFB 5552 SV52 Blanking Plate","offer_id":51590647578906,"sku":null,"price":79.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GFB 6464-2 TS V-Band Adaptor","offer_id":51590647611674,"sku":null,"price":109.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GFB 6464-3 TiAL V-Band Adaptor","offer_id":51590647644442,"sku":null,"price":109.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GFB SV52 T9052 BOV","offer_id":51590647677210,"sku":null,"price":445.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0957\/4347\/5994\/files\/GFB_SV52_BOV_Autech_Store_Auckland.jpg?v=1777011022","url":"https:\/\/autechstore.co.nz\/products\/gfb-sv52-bov","provider":"Autech Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
