I don't know how he by-passed the supercharger? the ------- thing sits right infront of the intake ports, the air would still need to go through the super charger wouldn't it? and god knows what kind of ------- huge restriction those pieces of ---- are.

he bypassed it so it would stop making boost.

I had a thought one night lying in bed. What if you were to have a dual intake manifold type setup with a JRSC on top with another manifold underneath it. I was thinking that the fmalge could be cut off the bottom manifold and it could then be welded to the JRSC's at a shallow angle so that it would rest pretty much right up against the underside. Then a flapper valve could be fabricated right at the junction of the two manifolds. Say you wanted the supercharger to make boost to 8psi then when the turbo could make more psi it would switch the s/c off. The flapper valve would allow whichever device, turbo or jrsc, that made the most boost to put it into the engine. Like, it would be a free floating type of valve that's attached on one side. The pressure of the turbo making lots of boost would force the valve into the "up" position, blocking off the jrsc. The problem I could see happening is pressurized air going up the wrong side of the manifold, like into the jrsc or the turbo (if the jrsc were blowing). It's hard to explain, but I have a picture of it in my mind. 2 tb's, 2 im's welded into one.
