HKS Blowoff Valve...check engine light!!!
<FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color=black size=3>Hey, I'm a new member!!! yay~*</FONT></P>
<FONT face=Arial size=3>Anywayz...I have a 98 Eclipse Spyder GST and I've just installed the Injen Intake(with after market BOV version) and HKS SSQV Blowoff Valve...</FONT></P>
<FONT face=Arial size=3>My 'Check Engine' light was up and I went to the dealer and turn it off...it was the emission problem by the error code...nothing was wrong...</FONT></P>
<FONT face=Arial size=3>And few days later, which is today, 'Check Engine' light is up again!!!</FONT></P>
<FONT face=Arial size=3>I'm gussing since HKS SSQV Blowoff Valve doesn't have recirculation to intake, rich signals are sending to the stock air sensor and cause the problem...</FONT></P>
<FONT face=Arial size=3>Do you guys know how to avoid this problem?</FONT></P>
<FONT face=Arial size=3>I don't wanna get the recirculation kit because I wanna keep this sound...</FONT></P>
<FONT face=Arial size=3>Thanks yo...</FONT></P>
</P>

<FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color=blue size=3>just a thought. If your boosting before your car warms up, that could be a cause. Boosting any turbo car before its warmed up and having an open atmoshere bov can cause the car to get crazy. so if thats not it wel i dont know what to tell you.</FONT>

Hey all...</P>
Thanks for informations...but I already decide to get a Injen Intake pipe for Stock BOV and get Recirculation Kit on my HKS SSQV...</P>
A lot of people told me that is better for perform also and with Injen or especially A'pexi Air Filter...the BOV sound will be still good...</P>
Thanks...^^</P>

<FONT face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" color=blue size=2>Yeah its probably better that you went with what applications specify than rigging the car. Unpluging check engine lights is a real good way to mess up your car. You might never know when something is wrong.</FONT>

venting the blow off valve to the atmosphere will actually cause a loss of performance, as your missing the additional spooling you will get when the boost is dumped back upstream of the impeller.</P>
I personally think its a rediculous thing to do, just to "sound cool" (which is totally subjective, because anytime i hear something like that, I laugh hysterically).</P>
No offense to anyone; thats just my opinion on the noise.</P>
