NOVI 200 discharge tube?

buddha · 03-04-2001, 09:33 PM

Anybody know where I can get the discharge tube with the blowoff location at the elbow, next to the throttle body? I have the chrome one with the blowoff underneath, in the middle of the tube. Thanks!

Is this what you are looking for?

This is the discharge tube and bypass location that comes with the NOVI 2000 kit. Forgive my weak bypass valve, however, I'll be moving up to a billet race bypass this spring.

How much of a differencen will you see from changing your bypass to a race style bypass.

StangFlyer · 03-05-2001, 10:46 AM

None really. It just has to do with how much air the bypass can handle. If it's not up to the job your going to get reversion, heat build up, and problems. The small plastic one that comes with all the blower kits is good up to around 12 psi. After that you need to look at going with a billet aluminum race bypass. I run 10 psi for my street set-up, but for the track this year I'll be running 18 lbs of boost and I'll need the race bypass.

Yep, that's the one Dan. I'm assuming it came with the blower kit you bought. I believe the tube I have is an earlier style one. Who did did you purchase your blower from? Thanks ahead of time!

I got my NOVI 2000 kit directly from Paxton. It's actually a 5.0 kit, since they don't have a 351W specific kit, and I made a couple bracket modifications.

Furthermore, the discharge tube you have is the VR-4 tube. It is chrome and has the bypass valve fitting near the middle of the tube, on the bottom side, point down towards the headers. The stupidest darn thing I've ever seen. I know, I have one. It makes the plastic bypass come so close to your headers mine melted (when I used to run a Paxton ball drive with that tube on my ex-302).

I'm sure you could call Paxton and order the NOVI 2000 discharge tube...

AHH thanks for clearing that up about the race bypass.

buddha · 03-06-2001, 04:21 PM

Thanks Dan! Ya, it is a stupid location and I figured that the tube was for another Paxton. I can't even begin to get the billet anywhere close to mounting properly without strut tower interference. Thanks for the help!

No problem! Glad I could help out...
