    Supercharger Bypass (blow off valve)

    The whistle that 02SilverSiHB kept talking about reminded me of something I saw on vortech's website

    Whats a blow off valve for a supercherger sound like??

    Anyone know? (sup spider883) I want an Si now :P...either that or a scion tc

    The scion will actually be equiped with a vortec supercharger. But only released in november

    bov all have a different sound but they all kind of sound the same I don't know why anyone would want to have the SC sound like a turbo.

    lol, yeah, I don't think that's something I'd care for. Either way, I don't think it's possible for the jrsc...at least I don't think so.

    The whistle sound is pretty neat though, I was surprised to hear it at first, never had that sound on my last jrsc.

    That red integra at the first on the dyno is running a blow off vavle on a supercharger. Just let the vid play a little he pulls it on the street and you can hear it blow off!

    Thanks man....yea i wanted to know what something like that would sound like.

    The scion's SC is a vortec supercharger and im sure i can upgrade with vortec...that is only if i get that car.

    Im still thinkin about a JRSC and the ep3!

    What does the ep3 put out supercharged?

    under 200 not tuned...
    with k-pro, pulleys and some tuning I would expect (and hope for) 220.

    I take it you are referring to the vid of mine? you can't really hear it in the vid, you just have to drive the car to know what I'm talking about

    I don't know if it's possible on a JRSCed honda, but it is possible on a SC car. My buddy has Stang SCed and he has a blow off valve.
