- 2019 Charger Hellcat
I'm new to the hellcat so sorry if this has been covered or is a ridiculously basic question.
My question, how does the supercharger bypass valve work? I get that it bypasses compressed air back to the inlet but when does it do so? Only at part throttle? Does it limit max boost? I started wondering this after seeing a post regarding a pulley that is advertised not to require tuning. I'm assuming the engine computer decides when and how much to bypass, just would like a better understanding on what its trying to do.
