Good job Mr. Handz!
With BOV's you run a rich conditiion after shift.
The BOV is downstream of the MAF,the ECU schedules xx amount of fuel for the airflow is sees from the MAF.When the BOV vents to atmosphere some of the air is dumped overboard and not mixed with fuel.Thus,the ECU has scheduled fuel for the airflow it swa from the MAF,but there is not actually
that amount of air going into the combustion chamber.So there is less air to mix with the fuel which makes it run on a rich condition for a short period of
time.The recirculating BOV puts the air back into the intake system so what the MAF sees is actually going into the combustion chamber.Unless you are
pushing alot of WHP don't worry about getting a BOV.They can actually hurt your engine.

That's what an LS MAF sensor and Translator is for...Puts the meter after the BOV so it only reads the actual air entering the manifold...It's one of the ways to vent the BOV the right way.

Wow...talk about a blast from the past. Same exact thing but 20 years ago. I was in my 78 Cobra and a guy in a Chevelle did the same thing. Not only did he rev but did a massive burnout at the light. Turned green and he took off with the State Trooper right on his tail...

DTNODYA...never be the first one the cop catches up to. I learned that the hard way. Now I stay in it and let them take the weakest of the herd. Not racing mind you just running 80-85 in a pack...stay in front.

It looks like the Canadians/Ontario Government is cracking down on street racers Smashing Rice

*Cringe*

I don't care if those are riced out honda's.. Needlessly destroying stuff is one thing that makes me angry..

Do something productive with those cars.. Donate them to charity or something.. I'm sure more than a few charities would kill to have a vehicle given to them..

Oh wait.. I forgot it's Ontario..
