SC14: Hose/Vac Lines?

[AXTX]

Hey guys, first time ever using a SC-14 supercharger, in a car doing a custom set up.
(in a FORD TX5 AX KLDE)

i got a few questions about the supercharger its self,
it has three hose lines that come out of the supercharger?
one on the back plate and two near the pully of the supercharger?

So what do you suggest I do with these lines?


I read something about the ABV? but thats another valve that didn't come with the supercharger?

A few things, at idle, with the supercharger off, the car still runs, so do i need a by pass valve of any sort? it seems the stock compression turns the supercharger (I read that this is common on V6 Commodores, mine is also a V6)








The vac lines are in the white that I'm unsure about.

Anyideas?

thanks heaps guys! sorry for the newb questions!

So, i looked harder and found these photos, All those lines seem to join up togeather and run off somewhere?


Does anyone know? or could help me?

these hoses are used to equalise pressure in the sc crank case. ill look up the connections when im near the book for you if someone else doesnt get to it before me..
normally there is a vsv in ther that is switched to cnnect all 3 together when there is manifold vac and isolate them under boost (or the other way around i cant remember atm)

Where is the throttle going to be located on your set up?
If you leave it in the standard place (on the inlet manifold) then I would simply connect those hoses to the pressure/discharge side of the plumbing. That way, when the SC starts to deliver boost pressure, the pressure in the delivery pipe equalises the pressure (via those small hose's) on the bearings and seals and you won't nead any solenoid valves.

thats the answer i was looking for!

yeah the TB will be left on the stock place (eg the inlet mani, after the supercharger)

thanks heaps you two, i plan to connect all three hoses into one, and then onto a bung on before the TB.


thanks again!
