    Question about a procharged 2001 GT mustang, please help

    I have a friend who has a 2001 Gt and has a procharger kit on it. He was having some problems with the blow off valve last night. I have never seen what they use or what not but it was verry little and looked like it actually fell apart and it was just blowing air constant right out the tube. I am not very framiliar with the kits or mustangs in genral, so my question is what type of set up should he go with for a new one and if anyone has pics of the way there set up is.

            Yellow one is still for sale, but I know someone that was looking at trading in for it.

                I have a turbo XS RFL on my svo. dont know if the turbo ones are the same for super charged. seems like they would be though.


                by the way, if he wants loud this is the one to get. RFL- really fucking loud.

                  If the above fits the description, send a PM to Sweet10th or Sweet35th or Zinc_00_GT - they are familiar with this setup.

                    I have my stock bypass valve from my kit I could sell, practically new. Or a better route is to replace it with an aftermarket one(s). I fabbed up a tube that accepts two Bosch #114 by-pass valves (these are like what the Vortech's and Paxton's come with, but much better). The stock Procharger by-pass valve leaks considerably even when they're new, it's just a piss-poor design.

                      is the bypass tube vented to atmosphere?

                      whats the problem wont it build boost or is it just venting to atmosphere like rons car does!
                      it's almost allstock! except the wheels.

                        Yeah Kris that sounds like the exact car. I really dont know him at all but im pretty sure he just got it not to long ago. Yeah its just blowing straight out the tube. I never really saw what the orignal looked like but it looked like it fell apart , and yeah it looks like there factory setup sucked. I think hes already getting it fixed, he seems to have some money. Ill try to find out what he used and see if he wants to due some more runs !

                          Jon, just finished the valleyfair video. You're right, it is RFL. Cool though.

                            yeah, If I were you, I would get something not so audible. I get annoyed with mine sometimes.

                              I like the Tial BOV's, they come with a nice V-band clamp flange for attaching it to the upper tube
