Awesome thats greats news Munch, thanks. One more question to all you Bosch 110 Sporters. I wanted to wait to see what ZPI was doing with their whole BOV kit for the supercharger. So far no updates as they are backed up with work. Is there any advantages of a BOV over a BPV. I want the pshhh sound everyone wants, but if the Bosch 110 performs better, I will obviously choose function over form. Is it even possible to run a BOV on this TRD blower and are there any advantages? Will it sound like a BOV on a turbo? or will it have a diff sound. If not, I am headed to the Saab dealership after work

BOV integration
Can you not just get an adapter and mount a BOV in there instead of using a BPV. Like what is show here http://www.stealth316.com/2-bov1.htm. If that would work it would be nice then you could use either BPV or a BOV for those who prefer the PSHHH noise.

In theory, you could just unplug the return hose coming off the stock BPV that returns the air back to the supercharger inlet.. and you'll get the BOV sound as it will then vent to the air. Atleast i believe this is true.

why does everyone want a BOV soo badly??? Why is everyone gonna sacrifice reliability for a freakin shreiking noise. Id hate to say this but it seems like everyone is gettin the whole ricer attitude with this thing...I dunno thats just me but I would rather it be quiet and work right...Ive had turbos with loud BOV's and it just gets annoying. The only good part about having an atmos. BOV, is when you let it blow off next to some old person and they go what the hell was that

^^^^Was that directed towards me?? I know the supercharger comes with a bypass valve and not a BOV. I was just trying to say that why is everyone so gung ho on putting a BOV in instead of upgrading the BPV to the 110(which I did thanks to you). What I mean by sacrificing reliability is who knows if an atmospheric BOV will not cause the car to wanna stall in between shifts and coming to a stop. Is it really worth it just to hear the BOV sound, I dont think it is but again thats me.

Got mine in today MAN is the spring stiff on this compared to the stock unit! The stocker is floppy compared to this. This one actually hurts the tip of my finger trying to push it in!

Not installed yet, waiting for the wife to get home to watch the kids while I go play. Man I say again, I really cannot beleive how strong the spring is. The old one I could compress with my pinky with ease, the new one.... OUCH! Does not move!
