Should I boost bypass?

I still have the stock PCM program and by my sig you can see I have the 3" ZZP pulley. I changed my plugs to the BKR7Es and I gapped them at .35. My question is should I do the boost bypass mod? I still have my boost controller (manual) from my SRT-4. Should I use that? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
DJ

Why would you use a boost controller we are supercharged not turbo, and no don't use the boost bypass if you are getting around 14psi. then there is no need for it.

Cool Thanks.
I have read of some guys with ss/sc using the boost controller on their cars.

well lets say this. I just got my car back from the dealer. Before I sent it in I reattached my bypass actuator and tube to the unit. When I took off from the dealer I was like crap my car is noticeably slower. If you have a smaller pulley than stock and no tune Boost bypass BPV Mod is for you. Otherwise you cannot boost beyond 12 psi. If you have a stock pulley then you do not need it. As for the boost controller, they are usable on our cars. If you have a really small pully and want to conserve fuel or you dont have the proper tune to it yet you can keep the PSI down to a safe level. Say you have a 2.5 inch pulley and all the supporting mods out the wazoo but the cooling aspects. You set the boost controller to limit your psi to 17 lbs and it will keep things safe. You cannot raise it while driving but you can keep it down at safe levels.
