To vent or not vent

[Murderedsvt]

Need to replace my gasket on my supercharger tank, been wet couple of times after a drive now I’m looking into options and I was told I need a cap that has a vent to prevent cavitation any ideas ?

I run a True Forged tank and it's not vented. Haven't noticed an issue yet.

Mine is vented…No clue if it helps or not…

If you're having cavitation issues then you need to look at how you have your inlet pump hose routed. The pump shouldn't cavitate if you keep it flooded.

I dealt with this on my car when I first got it. The inlet going into the pump was lower than the actual inlet on the pump itself, so it was easy for the pump to cavitate due to losing prime.

Your cap is already vented. The round part on the red cap is a vent.

Yea I know I just want to replace the seals and looking at options to change the cap to a non vented

I bought one from Motion Raceworks to put on my IC tank just like that. Its not vented, but seems to be working. I used my daughters play dough to check hood clearance and I had plenty of room with my TF hood vents.

Cap has been disassembled lubed and I found vent was clogged with sediment
