The CTS Blow-Off Valve Kit is a naturally aspirated kit for the 1.6-litre N14 engines in the Mini Cooper S, JCW, S Clubman and JCW Clubman (R55, R56, R57 and R58). The kit is constructed from billet material and is fully serviceable.
The kit is designed to work with all original electronics and does not trigger any engine fault lights. The CTS N14 kit replaces the plastic factory part, which is prone to torn diaphragms, cracked plastic and electrical faults. The piston design ensures a long service life, easy fitting, full serviceability, a great sound and excellent value for money.
The valve is compact and even slightly shorter than the original part, ensuring it fits well in the cramped N14 engine bay. The original turbo does not need to be removed for fitting; installation takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the fitter’s speed and experience.
