Blow off Valve C32 S/C
Does anybody have a blow off valve on their C32's? I know the car is supercharged and all but I never heard of anyone having a blow off valve in a Benz. My boy has one in his WRX, I can't figure out if I love it or hate it.

You can not replace the clutch on the kompressor with a solid or welded pulley. DME monitors boost and will not upshift transmission if it can not disengage the clutch.
If somehow this can be reprogrammed, than one will need a bypass valve to keep kompressor from surging under part throttle and coasting down conditions.
