Blow off valves
Anybody have any experiences running different blow off valves on an ATI procharger?

Hey VR,
Would you happen to have a sound clip of the Vortech BoV going off? When does it actually make noise, during deceleration?

Awe man, where's the fun in that?
Must be a pretty stealthy install, save for the incredible exhaust sound.
