?'s about boost and vacuum.

Well, I'm going to order my supercharger tommorrow, and I'm pretty mechanically inclined. I'm pretty sure I can bolt everything up, and once I do that I'm taking it to a local shop to get it dyno-tuned and any bugs worked out that it may have. I do have 1 question I have always wondered though. How do all your components and sensors that are designed to work on vacuum live in a boost environment? I heard about check and bypass valves but I'm not really sure on all that and will probably let the shop deal with all that while I do all the simple stuff I understand.

The best answer I can really give si that they just do. I have been running over 15psi for over a year and none of my sensors have been damaged. They seem to be able to take the extra bar of boost no problem.

the only bypass valve is the one that is on your discharge, that routes air that has bounced off the closed throttle blades around the supercharger so it doesn't try to stall the compressor.
