Description

The COBB LF BPV is a compact, lightweight by-pass valve engineered to hold high boost pressure without leaking. Its updated design reduces control volume by 30% for faster venting, while the banjo-fitting vacuum port provides 360-degree hose-routing adjustability. Lightweight moving parts reduce inertia, and the updated spring and seal increase peak clamping force by 60% while maintaining similar idle and transient operation.

  • 100% billet aluminum construction with 100% O-ring sealing.
  • Fully rebuildable if an O-ring ever needs replacement.
  • Updated version of the original 745665 LF BPV with a different internal spring.
  • Original spring: 3.5-inch free length, 7.4 lbf/in rate, and -5.7 psi bench cracking vacuum; new yellow spring: 2.25-inch free length, 40.5 lbf/in rate, and -6.7 psi bench cracking vacuum.
  • Confirmed fitment: 2015-2021 Subaru WRX and 2014-2018 Subaru Forester XT. Verify the exact vehicle configuration before installation.
  • 50-state emissions legal when used according to the COBB application guide; covered by CARB Executive Orders D-660-36 and D-660-83.
  • Installation difficulty is approximately 2 out of 5. Installation instructions.
  • Official video: Inside the COBB LF Bypass Valve.
