Default Supercharger (Finally) Installed

So after a year of sitting at home or riding in the trunk, I finally got my Vortech S/C installed. Had the whole thing done at Excessive Motorsports. They did a great job. Final Numbers: 440rwhp and 390ft/lbs of torque. I love the centri, drives just like stock until you head over 3,000rpm. Hopefully I remembered how to link pictures right:

8psi. I'm hoping that pretty safe and the motor will last a while in the current setup.

Default breather

I noticed only a breather on your driver's side of your engine. If you are going to breathe one side you must breathe the other. The pcv system has to either be completely sealed, or totally open(breathers on both sides).

Congrats on getting the blower up and running.

I had this done at a pretty reputable shop in VA. Is that a major issue? What difference would it make? Cost to add the other side? Thanks.
