Default blow-off valve.. before or after intercooler??

i guess the subject says it all.. i'm installing a turbo xs blow-off valve on my 00 GT w/vortech sq-trim running about 8#'s of boost.. should i put the blow-off valve between the intercooler and throttle body or intercooler and blower??

or should i run 2 and put 1 between each??


any advise would be helpful

I would put it before. Why cool the air to dump it back out of the system?

I have never put one on a Super chaged car But on a Trubo car allways goes on after the Intercooler that way the shock wave is less likly to get back the the Trubo or supercharger. you put it after as a buffer....... Now about the 1 or 2 run I cant say on a supercharger I have never missed with then But on a trubo car dont need 2 less you have a Huge trubo at very high psi I really dont think you need 2 on there as you are not running high psi I guess it matters how larger the BOV is really...... But I would try one. I am not sure about where you want it on your car As I dont know Jack about Supercharging...... I can only tell you about Trubo stuff...

the bypass valve goes before the intercooler, and after the blower.

good luck
