Default vortech bypass valve options.

Wondering what you guys are running for your vortech setups, (9#+)

Im piecing together a vortech kit,a nd don't have the stock bosch one, so i need to buy one.

Figure might as well get a better one if i need to buy one.

how do you like the maxflow one from vortech, is the mondo worth the price difference?

or does anybody have a stock one laying around they would let go cheap?

Ryan.

The Vortech race bypass valve bolts directly onto the aftercooler. You'll either have to open up the passage on the intake tube for more airflow or vent to atmosphere. The stock one worked fine when I had the G-trim but I had to switch to the race valve to stop the surging when letting off the gas that I had with the T-trim. I had a larger nipple welded onto the intake tube and put a large aluminum tube on from the valve to the intake tube. I added a picture on my Cardomain link, its at the bottom.
