running a blow off valve??  why not an external wastegate off the manifold? much better for control and will hold until its told to! :)

why wont a bov hold until its told to!

[Artful Dodger]

They do, but they're less accurate and just a bit tacky really. They work on a spring and diagram system. An external wastegate with electronic controller its much more accurate. You can control the boost and run what you want when you want as you can change how much boost you have throughout the rev range.

This is much better on a turbo'd car, but I can't see why it wouldn't work on a supercharger:)
