Talking Vortech race valve FTW.. Huge difference in

Performance... Just installed this bypass valve, removed the junk one that was on the truck.. I couldn't believe the diff.. I can get a solid 6-7psi at part throttle, where before it might make 4.. Never before could I rev it in neautral and build over 3 psi now it will make 7.. So I guess the one I had from prochager was junk or wore the hell out... Should be able to make a full 11lbs , faster then it would make the 9 before.. Sweet...Thats all..

What, a new mod with no pics? You're slipping John...I know that a bypass valve isn't anything crazy cool to look at, but we still wanna see it

Sounds like a definite worthwhile mod for sure though
