Hey guys!
How do you fit a blowoff valve on a supercharged car?

Honestly... I love the sound. O-ricey me.



(Btw,it's for my girlfriends supercharged PT. but i was wondering it in general...)

you can always put a BOV on the intake manifold.

most likely it's got an internal BOV. If you put a BOV on and actually hear it, it will decrease the power of the vehicle.

Not familiar with the pt cruiser superchargers, but if they are intercooled (i know some supercharged stuff is) you can put one on the charge pipe.

As far as decreasing the power, I really don't think that it will assuming that it is setup correctly. It just wont do anything except for make noise.

charge pipe? on a supercharger?

DTN you mean weld a bung on the bottom half in the manifold? i think that's about the only place for it... it might be a good idea to ask newiburon.com.

Vortech style Supercharges can have a blow off valve, they look and operate similar to a turbo as opposed to your common roots type Superchargers.

These types of Superchargers can be easily intercooled, due to their turbo styled layout and also run BOV's.

to run an actual effective BOV, you would need a centrivical <spl? lol type supercharger, that is basically a belt driven turbo..
