Product details
OVERVIEW
Turbosmart's electronically managed Kompact valve for the N20 and N26 four-cylinder cars. The factory unit is the same plastic solenoid design used across the range and fails the same way; the VR23 is a billet replacement that keeps the ECU in control of valve timing.
Dual port and plumb back versions are available. On a car with a MAF-referenced tune, the plumb back is usually the safer choice.
SPECS
- CNC billet construction
- Electronically managed — retains the factory solenoid control
- Direct plug-and-play replacement for the OEM N20 / N26 diverter valve
- Dual port and plumb back versions available
PARTS INCLUDED
- Valve as supplied by Turbosmart; see the installation instructions for the full bill of materials.
TECH RESOURCES
Additional Parts Required
- None. The valve is a direct replacement for the factory unit and uses the OEM electrical connector.
Installation

Notes
- Part number caution: TS-0223-1250 (this N20/N26 plumb back valve) is one character different from TS-0203-1250, the N54 Kompact plumb back kit. They are different products for different engines.
- Price is for parts only; labor is not included.
