Message	For some reason when I installed my Apex bov, I had a bak fire till I adjusted it properly. I think it was leaking to much air but when I tightend it up, backfire disappeared right away. : Well, I've been inching up on the RPM's that I shift at as well as stepping up on the loads (50-60% throttle), and sometimes I get a HUGE! backfire! I have a completely gutted system (no cats) and BOV's. I suspect that this is normal operation cuz of all the air vented when the BOVs open up make the rest of the system run very rich. : Do you get any backfiring with a similar setup? Is there any way to avoid it? Will the ECU learn this new configuration? Thanks! :
