UIM · Forced induction

Boost relief / overboost control valve, UIM

UIM answers this part for 13 of its classes, and publishes no rule for it in 8 more. 0 of those answers permit the part outright and 0 permit it with stated conditions, leaving 13 that do not. 6 are inherited from a parent class the rulebook points at.


UIM requires no boost relief valve anywhere. IJSBA requires an approved one in Ski GP and Sport GP. Do not carry the IJSBA requirement across.

Where it stands, class by class

21 classes, grouped where the same rule gives the same answer rather than listed one by one, because an answer that holds for a class usually holds for every class that borrows its rules. 6 of them borrow another class’s rules and are marked below; for those, the link to the parent class is read from the categories table rather than stated in the rulebook. 8 publish no rule for this part and name no parent to borrow one from, and are grouped together at the end.

What each answer below means

Not legal
This comes off. The rules refuse it in this class.
The rules do not say
Unanswered. The rules do not settle this, so ask the club before you rely on it.
No rule published for this class
Unanswerable here. This class publishes no rule for the part and names no parent class to borrow one from, which is an absence in the rulebook and not a permission.

The rules do not say 1 class

The Overboost Control appendix referenced at 502.03.04-09 does not exist in the document.

The rules do not say 1 class

Not stated. The HSR-Benelli figure is a boost limit, not a valve specification.


Boost relief / overboost control valve: if the rule your class applies reads differently to you, or the rulebook has changed since this was read, ask. We answer with the section we read it from, or that we have not read it. Ask a rules question.
