Introduction

In this installation guide we have provided step by step instructions to remove the OEM turbo Bypass Valve and install the 27WON Bypass Valve on a 2022 Civic Si equipped with Gin Turbo. Other 2022+ Civic and Integra 1.5T models will be similar. OE turbo install will be similar.

  • Working under the vehicle requires a safe and sturdy location for the vehicle to sit on jackstands.
  • The exhaust piping, turbocharger, and cooling system will be hot after recent vehicle operation. Allow the vehicle to cool or use a fan to cool the exhaust components before working on the vehicle.

    • You will proceed to remove the OEM Bypass Valve from the vehicle in the coming steps

    • Removal of the Turbo Inlet Pipe is recommended to access one of the fasteners attaching the OEM BPV (Bypass Valve) to the Turbo. Due to the style of fastener used (Torx bit), they are easy to strip. This style of fastener is not reused. New hardware is supplied for reinstallation of the 27WON BPV making any future removal or maintenance easier

  9. Unfortunately Honda used a single use hose clamps for the turbo inlet pipe. These are difficult to remove Use caution not to damage rubber lines. This is tricky
    • Unfortunately Honda used a single use hose clamps for the turbo inlet pipe. These are difficult to remove

    • Use caution not to damage rubber lines. This is tricky

    • You can use a grinder, Dremel, or perhaps even shears to remove this single use clamp. We prefer Dremel

    • Remove Clamp Shown

    • Partially cut through band of clamp. The idea is to remove enough material that the clamp will break

    • Place flat head screwdriver under cut. If cut enough band will break pretty easily with a bit of pressure

  10. Pop crank breather hose off as shown Use caution as you proceed to minimize coolant leaks

    • The 27WON BPV is designed to provide OE like boost control and trouble free operation. Periodic service is necessary. If the valve is not serviced it may cease to perform correctly. This could shorten the life of your turbocharger. See instructions at the end of this guide for BPV service

    • BPV service should happen around every third oil change (12,000-15,000 miles). Spare lubrication is included for this

    • This chart shows good BPV operation for both the OE BPV and the 27WON BPV. Your boost control should look something like this

    • Notice there is not a spike in boost pressure as the turbocharger spools up

    • Notice there is not a spike in pressure when letting off throttle

    • Notice the time to go from purple arrow to green arrow. This is time to vent TC pressure. You see 27WON and OE are very similar

  26. Improper BPV operation can trigger CEL
    • Improper BPV operation can trigger CEL

    • P2261: Turbocharger BPV Issue. This may trigger for reasons not related to BPV. Check boost control using the example on the previous step to make sure your BPV is working properly. OE BPV can throw this code when the rubber seal tears

    • A properly functioning BPV will make some noises when it vents. With an OE intake you might not hear these. With an open filter intake you'll hear all the noises. A "Psssst" or "whooshing" sound is normal

    • If your turbocharger is not able to vent quick enough (for various reasons) it can make an audible noise. This 'flutter' or 'choo choo' sound is from compressor surge. This can reduce the life of the turbocharger. If you hear this noise, check out your entire boost control system including BPV

    • Watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QaajARc... at around 15-17s there is an example of compressor surge from the throttle plate closing
