New mini race valve from procharger. Goes in the same where my old bypass was. This thing does not seem much smaller that the big red race one. Much better price on it also. Anyone else use this and how do you like it?

I love it. Works way better than the stock bypass that came with the kit. Well worth the $250. Best part is that it clamps in the same spot as the old bypass. So less than 5 minutes and I was done putting it in. I have the twin intercooler setup.

I do not think it is too loud. The blower still seems to be louder than it until i get on it.

It is a little louder but not my much. I really only hear it when I am on it and shifting.
