I regret buying the HKS SSQ. It's a horrible horrible BOV. Get the JDM MR BOV.

please explain...
if no ground was hooked up, then it wouldnt of sprayed at all. common sense tells you to check to see if it sprays before you go running your car ***** out. it should of also been caught during the tune, if you even got tuned for the meth

megan o2 housing. I tried the stock spring bolts, bolts that came with the housing, and bolts that i bought from auto store. I tried running the stock donut gasket and without. No matter wich one i use it sounds like an exhaust leak. Maybe its because i didnt reuse the stock gasket that goes between turbo/housing and decided to use the one megan supplied.
