I still have the original bypass (the old one they used to use, I have read they are a little faster reacting) on mine and have it in stock location venting to atmoshpere. When I originally switched it to atmosphere I had it pointing to the ground and everywhere I went was like a dust storm and my engine bay was dirty as hell.
Now it's pointing upwards and all is good.

My impeller speeds right now @ 7krpm are around 57K and so far my plastic plenum is holding (knocks on wood). My new RR pulley is on the way which will max out the blower we'll see how it holds then.

The funny thing is that someone might actually believe this.
