Is partial boost possible at part throttle with a Procharger?
Sounds good, thanks! Bob

Funny how I was just thinking this exact same thing today and I just happen to stumble across this thread without searching for it.
I have the (race red procharger by-pass valve) as well and was wondering if it can be adjusted to close sooner to help make boost at partial throttle (40%ish) conditions? I was using some ebay Blow off valve before with my old setup and I remember it feeling more peppy due to it being closed all the time and only opening after going WOT or also it starting to open once I hit around 3000 rpm part throttle.. Maybe some guy's with experience can chime in.

Well, I will give feedback on this thread since it's been about year since I started down this FI path. Most definitely it made boost at part throttle, to the point that in first and second, I had to keep my foot out of the throttle because if I rolled into the throttle just enough to where the bypass closed, it was instant tire spin thanks to boost jumping from vacuum to 1-4# depending on what rpm I was at.
I'm putting together a forged shortblock right now, and can't wait to get back in the driver's seat. Adding the procharger was the single best thing I ever did to this car.

I talked with my tubes about adding a wastewater to the charge pipe. He said he's done them before. So he said if i wanted to do it, he would tune it. Now i just have ti decide if i want to do it or not.
