You can't find it because our SS has a bypass valve....you need new pipes, a maf relocation, and a tune to have an aftermarket bypass valve....

Unless you go with the forge unit that is like a hybrid sort....

Welcome btw

Welcome to he site.

A little advice: You posted this in the wrong section of the forum. The "How To" section is not to ask how to do something. You can read the instructions above.

Did you get a BOV or a BPV(by pass valve) Big difference in the 2 and you would probably need a tune to run a BOV.

link to forge unit:http://www.modernperformance.com/pro...o_blowoffvalve

the unit still needs an after market tune if im not mistaken
