Hey guys, about a month ago i installed an HKS BOV with the CP-E piping kit. Everything installed correctly. About a week after install. Car started misfiring at idle. Burning coolant like crazy. Turns out i cracked my 3rd Cylinder wall. at only 12k miles. Car is currently in shop being fixed under warranty. So im not worried about that anymore. However, my question is, can a blow off valve actually cause a cylinder wall to crack? Car just has a few bolt ons, intake, tune, piping, exhaust. I do drive my car pretty hard, but could a blow off valve seriously have caused an entire cylinder to crack?!? Thanks Guys!
