If there was that much engine oil blowing out of the blow off valve, you would have a lot bigger problems than the belt getting oil on it. We have been running the blow off valve in this location for 6 years now with no issues.

For those who are interested, we can also provide a recirculating by-pass valve instead.

Is of that much less work installing without intercooler? I'm genuinely asking as I may be missing something as otherwise it looks great and great price?
There is a heat shield that goes between the air filter and headers. Additionally, there is a pipe which directs the air from the front mouth to the filter. Our kit is to offer customers great gains at a great price, but if you are looking for a kit meant for tracking and/or very big power, this kit is not for you.
