they release back air pressure from the blower so it wont blow up..

ed is authorised to sell turbonetic products. he can get a good deal on blow of vales. my procharger one was broken and the turbonetics was a much nicer piece and cheaper.

i would think your t trim kit would have it included?

bowtiepwr,
I just got the Vortech Mondo bypass.It's not on the car yet because the engines out for a rebuild.So I have yet to try it out.

When should a standard air bypass valve be used?
A standard air bypass valve should be used on all supercharged applications where the supercharger is making more than 6PSIG. The advantages of using an air bypass valve includes eliminating compressor surge (the noise heard during deceleration) for quieter supercharger operation, and reduced heat soak in the discharge tube and the supercharger.

When should a race air bypass valve be used?
Any supercharger system that is operating in excess of 10 PSIG requires installation of a race air bypass valve to prevent compressor surge. All V-1 R, V-1 T, V-7, V-3, and V-4 superchargers require a mondo air bypass valve.

Where is the best place to mount a race or mondo air bypass valve?
Depending on the application, the bypass valve should be mounted on the discharge tube of the supercharger. On other applications, it may be more convenient to mount the bypass valve on the intake plenum. Often times because of space limitations it is more convenient to remote mount the bypass valve at a location where space allows. On custom applications, the location being chosen should allow for the space limitations and aesthetics of the particular systems installation.
