Default Blow off valve on SC

Noob question here!

Do the standard CT and VT AC SC's come with blow off valves or a flange for a blow off valve?

Vortech does and I believe the aftercooled Comptech does as well.

Vortech comes with a blow off valve. Aftercooled comptech comes with a bypass or recirculator valve.

Vortech does. Comptech has a bypass valve that feeds back into the intake.

The Comptechs plumbing is 1" hose but if you have the aftercooler you can unscrew the 1" spigot and it leaves a mounting point for a Turbonetics BOV. Or you can just plumb in a BOV with a 1" hose line like the TurboSmart Kompact. It even comes with a plug for the intake tract.

The vortech BOV that comes with the kit sounds really good. Not extremely loud but definetly something you and others can hear.

So, if you want somethign a little louder, then go for the Godzilla or Raptor?

I had a lightly tuned STi before the S. It was running at 16psi with an HKS BOV. Would the sound be thesame do you think? Or not as loud?
