You can wire the secondaries open permanantly because they are supposed to close and prevent weak vacuum signal at lower RPM.

So if I weld my own custom exhaust as true duals as 2 inch each I should be ok? Including the header. But when I think about it, the racing beat racing header is 2 inches, so i should make one 2.5inches?
Maybe I could make it 2 inches as a true dual because people here were referring to a collected system???
anyways, it's fun to think about, and great job on the supercharging man!...later

So can someone answer my questions? The air bypass is recylcing the air back into the intake before the charger right? And the tube coming off the back of it goes where? Is it a calibration tube so that it knows when to let air through?

This is going to be an awesome project... when he said he was going to install a blowoff valve, does he mean hes going to have a blowoff valve AND A bypass valve?

Please be aware that the BOV and bypass valve are not set up the correct way.
They do work but they are used to save money by not having to relocate the throttle body.
The correct way would be to have the SC suck through the throttle. A bypass valve in this setup would be nice but not strictly necessary. A BOV would not be necessary at all because a roots style SC has constant boost.
However the correct way is more complicated and more expensive. This incorrect setup does work but he is running into some problems with not being able to bypass enough air so he needs two of them.

You can wire the vacuum operated throttles open but you must leave the throttle linkage operated throttle plates alone.
A lot of ITS racers remove those throttle shafts completely.
Maybe I have the naming convention confused?
