Do you need more ventalation with stage 3 supercharger?

[Gus13letter]

When adding a stage 3 supercharger do you need more engine ventalation, like the flo-rites to run right? Is running the Riva 3" intake ok?
I have seen some 4" flowrites installed on the oposite side of the reverse handle but have not been able to find them to buy. I also saw some custom 4" air intakes through the rear seat that were very slick! Is this necesary though? My rear seat has been cut out and vents to the engine area so I do not use the rear bucket-I can post a pic later.

It's by no means necessary. You will see better performance by doing an air intake better than the riva 3". And better hull ventilation with the flo-rites installed. startinglineproducts.com has the 4" flo-rites.

Someone have experience with flow rites in general? I'm trying to figure out what I can do to keep water out of my hull where the seat latches.. When jumping waves a significant amount of splash gets in there and on my air intake filter/rrfpr.

Kinda curious how much water they can actually repell..

Under pressure (suction or water pressure) they will leak. Put one under the foset close to the outlet and the water will pour right through. Hold it further away and it'll repel.
