Dang oh man. Yeah thats a bypass. I havent seen that setup before on a Vortech. I saw a guy once with a procharged 5th gen Camaro. The piping to the tb was actually a 4in silicone hose. Everytime he'd rev it and let off, the hose would collapse on itself from the vacuum. I couldne hear a bov or bypass. Idk what was going on there lol. But yeah, as long as you protect the impeller from surging. I use to get that whooshshsh sound from the bov when I'd let off and that told me i needed to go bigger. That was compressor surge. Now it sounds like a huge turbo bov or jet engine.
