Torque Control Valve operates on exhaust backpressure to provide low end torque at lower rpms, and high end power and mid through upper rpms.

On higher horsepower vehicles, lower end horsepower and torque is lost in favor of peak horsepower with larger diameter exhaust systems.

The Torque Control Valve (T.C.V.) operates on exhaust pressure to provide a broader range of useable power, for better low-mid range power and torque, without sacrificing peak hp. The T.C.V. can also assist with quicker spool time on turbocharged vehicles.

Installs in place of main catalizer, rebuildable unit.

What does this do? How does it work?

I'd say it helps build pressure in the turbine by restricting the amount of wasted gas that can be released out of the exhaust system (up to the point where the valve is activated and allows full flow of exhaust gases), therefore spooling the turbo up quicker and it would be used on a laggy system. My guess anyway.

It looks from the pic that the hole is about one inch. Is that opened or closed? Does the opening get up to three inches when fully opened?
