Message	"Mass air sensor (MAS) equipped cars do not like BOVs. When a BOV vents to the atmosphere, air that has already been metered by the MAF goes missing, and the ECU will flood your engine with fuel intended for the air that was vented. On high power cars running a lot of boost, this can be bad enough to cause your car to stumble and die." This is posted on just about everyone's site talking about BOVs and AFCs etc... HKS, GReddy, Apex'i, I've seen it just about everywhere, and it is techically true. All the air you blow off has been measured and accounted for by the ECU... then it goes missing... Which does cause a rich moment... I'm smoking on deceleration and idea, and I think its partially for this reason... Supposedly when pushing ENOUGH air with big turbos, it would make sense that the car might stumble and die...
