Pardon my ignorance, but does the base Vortech system not have any sort of bypass valve? Would it not be more beneficial to bypass the air rather than dump it into atmo? Everything I've learned thus far has told me that blow-off valve = you're a stupid ricer/AFM or MAF doesn't account for loss of air and runs rich on throttle lift (and if you have a laggy turbo, say goodbye to all that pressure, have fun waiting to build it again). Then again this is a supercharger and not a turbo so... *shrug*

The supercharger flows more air at idle than the engine can handle, so the BPV is also pretty much open at idle venting excess air. If the MAF was located before the supercharger, then venting air from the charge pipe would result in a rich condition due to the MAF seeing a lot of air but the charge pipe dumping it. Completely safe/sane
