I've been up most of the night with a ridiculous cold that is driving me crazy and turning me into a zombie.
For the past few hours I have been researching different vent to atmosphere and recirculating bypass valves - thus feeding my zombieness.
Now I currently have an aftercooler supercharger at 9psi with one of those cheapy Bosch plastic recirculating valves - that honestly sounds like its going to shatter into a million pieces everytime I really get on it.

I don't mind the noise - hell, I got a vented hood for more aftercooler clearance and to hear the SC whistle a bit louder while driving.
I know 9psi isn't monster turbo boost and it will probably be a bit quieter because of that.
As far as connections go - the plastic Bosch unit just has hose slip over type ends. Obviously that boost can be handled just with the rubber hose from the aftercooler to the Bosch unit.

Are there vent to atmosphere units that could be adapted easily to this setup? Like a hose clamp type connection on the valve - hose - clamp connection onto the A/C nipple?
Help me out here.
