Would it be ok to put one washer with the 7lb pulley, to keep the car from stalling?

i dont think u need a washer. if ur at 7 lbs then u should be ok cuz when i first installed it i didnt put any washers in and it would only hold up to about 7.5 to 8 lbs and so i had to put another washer in to hold my 9.5 lbs.

the little vac line goes on top of the bov just like the bpv, it does not recirculate, that is where the big psshh comes in.

Just installed my hks bov and it sounds awesome. Instead of plugging up the bypass hose I just removed it and plugged the supercharger port. Works great and no stalling!

Still working great! Seems that it runs slightly rich when it goes off but that is okay.

I used the same kind of plug that goodguy used but just a little smaller to fit inside the s/c port. I installed the rubber vsv mount around the brake reservoir. By the wayTHANKS GOODGUY for the info!
