My car goes phsssssssshhhhh now (sneak peak) inside!
1st Custom Comptech Supercharger Ait to Air Intercooled CL Type S....... spec's and performance dyno print out soon and I will post a sample video and audio of the car . lets say blower is much cooler now..... 
.....
Don't know the gains yet with the Air to Air set up.. I went ahead and did it mainly for show to fill in my front bumper since its so dam big.... so hopefully it will perform as good as I think it will intercooled. Also did a HKS BOV for the pshshhshshh effect (lol) ..... the car still need some minor tunning and tweaks, it will be dynoed after the Philadelphia Auto Show....(Feb 15th)
Work perform by Andy Wagnor @ Wagnor Motorsports
HKS BOV
Custom 26' Spearco core

Just FYI, you probably won't get any sound from the BOV as it is post throttle. If the SC's bypass valve is intact the BOV would never get a signal to open as both sides are at the same pressure.
It looks good as I know it is for show. Just don't be expecting decent throttle response.

The roots style blower, such as the Comptech SC, is installed after the throttle body. Once the throttle is closed there is no more source for the blower to make boost and you imediately have a vacuum. There is no longer any boost in the intake tract which needs to equalize negating the need for a BOV. The only reason the bypass valve is in the SC case is not for compressor surge, etc. It is only to allow smoother operation and to increase efficiency when off boost.
IMO, and please don't take this as a knock against you, but this is very basic and a shop doing this type of work should know this.
As for a decrease in throttle response, it will be there. If you calculate the total volume of the air/air system you will be able to calculate the now increased throttle response. There is a reason why no OEMs install an air/air system when a roots style SC is used. This includes Mercedes, Jaguar, Ford, etc.

hahah, I was planing to get a used X5 or a used Porsche cayanne... but came across my old manager that I use to work for at a Audi dealer. Now he's a GM at a Toyota Dealer and he gave me the 4runner below invoice + the 4runner have a towing capacity of 5000lbs... thats what I needed to pull my jet ski and maybe my CL if I have to, so for what I needed it for it was plenty for me and the price was great so I didn't have to finance it... I will post pic's soon of the car once it's not shitty out........pretty upset that I didnt get a X5 or a Porsche but I got a pretty good car overall.... lets see how long I will keep this one
Carl WTF when are you going to make a trip to the East? (lol)
will keep you posted bro!
