In GM 4L30-E, AR25 and AR35 units, the OE boost valves are made of steel, whereas the sleeves are made out of aluminum. Over time the valve wears against the sleeve and causes boost pressure leakage. The result is low line pressure during boost, with associated burnt clutches. Sonnax boost valve kit 54200-06K restores pressure control to the boost circuit.

Sleeve is made from wear-resistant aluminum and incorporates annular oil passages to distribute boost oil evenly to the valve and reduce side loading
Hardcoat anodized aluminum valve combats premature wear
Valve includes oil grooves which allows the valve to ride on a film of oil, further reducing wear
Valve and sleeve are made from the same material to help reduce leakage due to thermal expansion
