Default I need clarification please

I am a little confused on the difference between a procharger big red race valve open version vs. a procharger big red race valve closed version. What exactly is the difference. Do they both vent to the atmosphere or is the closed version basically a by pass valve.

Thanks Jason

Thanks for the link man. Though I understand how the open valve operates. I really want to know how the closed version vents the air.


Thanks Jason

The closed one is usually rerouted back into the intake piping. Its quieter when routed that way.

Thanks that's what I thought but I couldn't find any literature stating that is in fact what it does. So the difference is the open vents straight to atmosphere and the closed vents back into the front of the system.

Thanks again man

Correct. Have you checked my prices on the ProCharger race valves? Here is a link to them. http://shop.brutespeed.com/ProCharge...alves_c347.htm Bob
