nevermind....figured it out...

so If I wanted to upgrade from a Stock Procharger Deal to one of these 50MM and the flange what are your thoughts? Or do you think they are cheap? I have gotten silicone from them and it seems like nice stuff...

there is no difference between the chinese knock offs and the real deal except for the price. the qc is not there on the chinese stuff so i would take it apart and see if there are any sharp edges etc. and if there are then i would file them down. they work great

don't be a cheapass, and don't use a blowoff valve.

Get the procharger Race bypass. It will open up a lot sooner (vaccum wise) than these blowoff valves, reducing the possibility of compressor surge.
