the blow off valve blew off the car.
anyone know any possible causes? i'm stumped.

('91 TII, emissions removed, 3' full exhaust, factory TID w/ cone filter)

car was right around 6k rpms when it happened. i think i saw a fire ball also, not sure though...

no i know i thought it was just so ironic. i lol'd at it as well.
it's an hks ssqv i think. i can't honestly remember right now. it looks like an old school model though. it's mounted between the turbo and tmic.

oh i had friends that the hks one could fly off too...thats why im running a greddy bov. people i talked to think its cause the hks is only held on by that clip and not really bolted onto the pipe

that's exactly what i thought. i guess i'm in the market for a new bov then :]
is it possible this was cause because i'm boosting too high? i'm on stock turbo btw.
