Default Comptech Air Water Aftercooler campatible Blow off Valve or Pop off valve?

I have heard about someone recommending a Vortech blow off valve and using it on a new Comptech air water aftercooler. I went to the Vortech website and didn't find anything that would match up to the 4 bolt hole pattern. Does anyone know what Blow off valve or Pop off valve mounts to the new Comptech a/w aftercooler?

Call comptech I don't have the spelling right but it is somthing like Sade.

It may void CARB certification, but I can't imagine some bloke at a Smog certification place knowing that.....

As far as I know, though, the only way to get a BOV on the Aftercooler is to weld one on. There is a Bosch Bypass valve and it looks like that could be replaced with any aftermarket BOV that fits on an Audi or VW 1.8....but so far nobody has been able to confirm that.

I"ve heard that some one on s2ki have a BOV on their Comptech charger (without cooler). I've tried searching for threads on it but i cant find any. Does any one know the guy/girl, i think the name was lile "red streak" or somthing.

Tech2Drew has a blow off valve on his comptech with AC. I think it is made by Venom (guessing). PM him, he is a board sponsor.

Well any kind of force induction before the throttle will build pressure and you need a way to release the pressure.
