blow off valve

ok I've heard of these and people talking aboutt hem all the time, and I know this is a gay question and I'll get made fun of quite a bit but what exactly does it do and what is the "sound"?

Re: blow off valve

it opens to let the pressure out of the intercooler pipes. the sound is air coming out.

if you want to know HOW it works, Kevin Jewer had a thing or two to say: http://racingknowledge.org/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=117
