  Blowoff valve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term "blowoff valve" is commonly used in the disussion of turbocharged vehicles.
Some blowoff valves are marketed with trumpet shaped exits that amplify the "psshh" sound went the person driving the car shifts gears.
When the throttle is closed, underpressure develops in the intake manifold after the throttle plate and "sucks" the blowoff valve open.

 Blow Down Valves
The outlet of valves is purposely "Venturi tube" shaped; stem is rising non rotating; a local stroke indicator shows the position of the disk.
A standard blowdown or blowoff valve does not assure a tight sealing after some operating period: this is due to the normal erosion made by fluid between seat and disk; in case tight seal is needed, this function was performed in the past by a second valve.
It is a "multistage" valve splitting the pressure drop along the whole disk that is along the different stages of the disk.

 Relief valve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The relief valve is a type of valve used to control or limit the pressure in a system by allowing the pressure source fluid to flow from an auxiliary passage, away from the main flow path.
The relief valve is designed or set to open at a predetermined pressure to protect pressure vessels and other equipment from being subjected to pressures that exceed their design limits.
When the pressure setting is exceeded, the relief valve becomes the "path of least resistance" as the valve is forced open and a portion of the fluid is diverted through the auxiliary route.

 HKS Super Sequential Blowoff Valve (SSQV) Kit Subaru Impreza WRX STI 2004 Turbo
The Super Sequential Blowoff Valve (SSQV) releases excess boost when there is a pressure alteration in its chambers, not by the rate of boost pressure or vacuum in the line.
These large valves react slowly and require high pressure to open, and are not able to activate and prevent compressor surge at light-load conditions.
The HKS Super Sequential Blowoff Valve (SSQV) is engineered to initially open the small primary valve at light throttle and load conditions, then sequentially opens the secondary valve for additional relief capacity under high boost and load conditions.

The purpose of a blow off valve is to reduce the amount of back pressure applied to your engine.
Valves, springs, and retainers are a MUST, as well as cam gears and some sort of fuel management to run it.
