i see that on gravana tuning when i typed in 2005 chevy cobalt ss s/c they say that a blow off valve fits the car. Is their anyway possible to put one on our cars? has anyone done it?

Not possible.

 

blow off valves are for turbo setups.... they lied

 

i know this.........i heard awhile ago that someone on this site had gotten one to work on thier stock ss s/c

 

It will work with a lot of mods but its pointles and a waste of money...the noise gets annoying after a while anywyas.

 

no , you need a centrifugal blower for that not a roots style like ours

 

da whistle tips go woooooooo wooooooooooooooooo

 

**** that bov ****, all the pixies are going around here, pissh pissh like little tinkerbells spreading there ferry dust! Your supercharged man represent!

just make it whine like a nun sitting on a cucumber patch, and youll turn more heads then they do, you will turn theres aswell!

 

hahaha lmao Funniest thing ive heard all week

 

rofl nun on a cucumber patch.

 

i dont know whats with the dude above me. I have a supercharger and love the wine but nothing beats the sound of a blow off valve. and it sounds like this kepishhhhhh. Im actually swapping my supercharger out for a turbo. you want real power get a turbo.

 

rofflecake...and yes its possible and quite easy but a hassle to do

 

but people are missing the point as to what it does and how it works in a system compared to a supercharger.

When you let off the gas the turbo is still producing boost, so a blow off valve lets the extra boost thats coming through the charge pipe release in to the air and not in to your motor.

Now a supercharger is belt driven. The air intake isnt forced air. The forced air is between the rollers of the supercharger and the intake manifold. So there would be none if any sound produced. because you cant put a blow off valve there.

In the end it would cost a lot a **** ton of rigging and nothing in the end. Save your money man.

 

ok so why are almost all drag cars blown? and not turboed?

 

funny... I've seen just as many turbo drag cars as blown ones...

 

you really don't want go there.

turbo's are not legal in certain classes in nhra.

the turbo cars aslo have a weight penalty and smaller cubes in other classes because they whoops everyones ass.

 

what do you mean by blown? as in forced induction? cause a turbo is considered forced induction as well.

 

AHAHA you saw that too!?

 

blown... as in blower... as in supercharged...

a turbo car is not "blown"

 

yea man, it's just fo decoration, fo decoration

 

see i disagree. a car being "blown" was referred to as a car using a forced induction set up to create more power. Now a supercharger creates and forces air in to the intake manifold then to the cylinders, as well as a turbo creates air and forces it in to the intake manifold then to the cylinders as well. So IMO they are both "blown" applications. Yes i know their designs are different and have different outcomes as to power levels, but in the end they both have the same ending principle and thats to force air in to the motor to create more power.

 

in street maybe ^ anyway as Area47 said I dont want to go there, iam not the most educated guy on forced induction
