Default Rally Car Technicals

I was always led to believe that turbocharged rally cars did not use blow off valves in order to release pressure because the drivers tend to be on the throttle so much, there was no need, and spilling the pressure so quickly would not benefit in the car's performance.

I was wondering:
1.) Is this true?
2.) If not, how do they release the pressure?
3.) Are there any magazines with specifications?

-Any help and or insight would be much appreciated.
