Blow off valve for Supercharger?
Blow off valve for Supercharger?
I read in a magazine that you can bolt on a blow off valve onto a supercharger. Is this true? Does it sound like it would with a turbo? Oh, and I know I'm a noob, no need to point it out. lol...

The roots blower (Cobalt) does not use one.

I remember seeing a company that makes a speaker that goes under your hood and makes the "swish" sound every time you let off the gas. It was over at Stangnet (when I had my Mustang GT) and the V6 guys were like "oh where can i get that!"

Check the FAQs at the top of the page. There is lots of noob info there and then you can avoid getting bashed.
only centrifugal can use a bov. There is no room for one with a roots or twin screw. There is a reason to have one with a centrifugal tho. it does the same thing it does for a turbo. Once the throttle is closed there is excess pressure that is stuck in there and it will want to get out. The only way for it to get out without a bov is back thru the compressor which is not good! Since a centriugal s/c is basically a modified turbo, it does the same thing. a bov just makes your centrifugal s/c or turbo more reliable.
lol ONLY 120 DOLLARS FOR A FAKE BLOW OFF VALVE!!!! WOW!! I dont understand why anyone would want that. Then you will just get challenged by bigger, badder cars and lose even worse. I think i should give my friend one for his birthday. He has an early 90's accord that we put a cardboard spoiler on along with a meijer 5 inch exhaust tip and a cardboard hood scoop. yea, its pushin some major hp.
