Does anyone have any suggestions for an inexpensive BOV I can use with my used Vortech kit. I'm only looking for ~6 psi boost. I know you can find the bosch style by-pass valves for cheap (like what comes with the kit), but on summit they say for under 400 hp which doesn't make sense, and can they be used as a blow off valve, seems like it would. My kit came with a Mondo and i just can't figure out anywhere to put the giant. The only place i could see as reasonable is behind the driver headlight, which is where i put my alky pump. Suggestions on that would be appreciated too thanks

I use (2) bypass valves from evoms.com. I have 14psi @ the intake manifold. MAF sensor is located up stream of bypass valve(s) ouput and blower intake.

Installed a Snow stage 2 kit. Located the pump inside the front facia (down-low) Rt side, and, converted the rad overflow stock tank to hold the fluid. Moved the batt to the rear of vehicle. Also, installed a relay to turn on/off Snow controller from the driver seat.

 

ebay has some for cheap. xs power and ocx? racing I think are the names, I dont know much about them other than I know people use them for intercooler setups.

 

thanks for the replies but i ended up mounting it in to the core support on the driver side just in front of the air dam (under the headlight). I just fired it up for the first time with the s-trim, it sounds sooo good. I'm gonna get it on the dyno in the next couple of week and will post up some numbers. thanks

What psi on that stock bottom end? intercooled?

 

I use a bosch bypass valve from like a saab or something. you can get them on ebay prety cheap, think i payed $30 used for mine. all you need is a 3/4" fiting and a short piece of hose. works great for my app. but im only runnin 5 psi.

 

stock motor with a cam and alky injection, it ended up making 7 1/2 psi but has stayed together on the dyno and some WOT blasts on the street
