The piston inside the PERRIN Performance™ blow off valve is positioned horizontal to the mounting base and is driven by vacuum in the intake manifold, not by pressure in the boost tubes. The PERRIN™ blow off valve piston is in fact forced shut by boost pressure with in the boost tubes.
The added adjustability allows the tuner to vent less air for low boost applications and more for high boost applications. Custom tailored venting will minimize your boost lag between shifts.

I Could have sworn that's how my HKS SSQ worked.... I don't think that that's "New" Technology... how else are you going to controll boost ? And Know when you need to bleed it off ? (Going from + Pressure to Vaccuum) if you don't use something that reads vaccuum....

The added adjustability allows the tuner to vent less air for low boost applications and more for high boost applications. Custom tailored venting will minimize your boost lag between shifts.
That is cool, but again not revolutionary, I thought I could do that as well with the SSQ by adjusting the back bolt....

Don't get me wrong, cool new part, especially if it works relaibly, costs less, and fills people's needs performance / audiably....

Sounds like it says it works the opposite to me? It says by vacuum instead of pressure.
vacuum in the intake manifold, not by pressure in the boost tubes
Is that not the case?

it says that is "forced shut by the boost pressure".... same as the hks ssqv.
