Yes, it probably wouldn't be needed w/ stock lbs. of boost, but I've heard instances where air to air interooled cars needed 2 of them. You won't get that sound unless your discharging the air into the atomosphere which wouldn't be possible unless you mount it before the MAF...you probably could since your running an air to air.<br /> <br /> <small>[ April 15, 2003, 10:21 AM: Message edited by: VortechSaleen ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>CustomFastbackCA</b> <br /><small>Member # 1369</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,3,15,10,23,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Ok so 10lbs of boost and a power aftercooler and I could have blow off valves before the MAF? just trying to be clear... <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>99gt-UJSTLST</b> <br /><small>Member # 584</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,3,15,10,31,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by CustomFastbackCA:<br /><strong>Ok so 10lbs of boost and a power aftercooler and I could have blow off valves before the MAF? just trying to be clear...</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">yea you could but you dont need one<br />you have a bye pass valve on yours already <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>CustomFastbackCA</b> <br /><small>Member # 1369</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,3,15,10,34,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Cool, but in the near future if I want to hear the sound of valves blowing off bouncing of the doors of some camaro that I am smoking, I can use them without any problems right?

The reason it would be easier w/ an air to air is because you'd have a lot more exposed piping to work w/ especially between the charger and throttle body..that's usually where you'd mount a blow-through MAF. From there you have alot of places to choose from along the intercooler plumbing to mount it. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
