    Just wondering if anyone is running a blowoff valve setup on their L67? Is it even beneficial for a supercharged engine running a decent amount of boost. Saw them on s/c mustangs not on l67s though.

    Well, since the pressure or boost is created after the Throttle body, we have no need for a BOV.

    Roots Blowers have no need for a BOV...sorry you can't really get the pssssssssssssssssssht sound

    you gotta be putting out a ****load of boost for one of those an they are more to deal with the surge which you dont really get on a supercharger the pressure that is kept would just cut down on lag the next time your throttled
    I'm sorry officer I didnt know I couldn't do that

    For a centrifugal supercharger setup you could run one. Not on a roots though.
