As for the bypass valve I used a forge 007 type 30 bucks on eBay ( the ones the vortech use or like vw turbo applications I have the 8-20 psi spring in the housing. And drill and tap a 3/4 npt port about center of the lower intake and use a 90 degree elbow with 1 inch hose barb... Thread from underside and install fitting an tighten then I ran 1 inch heater hose up from under and through backside of engine into the bottom port on bypass valve.
Then the side port of bypass valve into another 3/4 npt 90 elbow 1 inch hose barb that get tapped into the inlet before screws.

Knocking noise?I know this is an old thread but I recently completed these same mods on my 2.1 and am experiencing a couple problems. At idle the 1" heater hoses for the bypass valve are getting pulled (collapsed) closed, as soon as you give the engine a little throttle the hoses go back to normal. The second problem I am finding is a knocking noise at idle coming from the supercharger since pulleying it up to 12 lbs. Any advice or solutions you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
