Default How do you feel when your BOV goes off in font of someone? and....

Well...I was with my friend..He's kinda stupid...but we were in his 95 Civic Si and he had a Greddy kit...and Type-S BOV...We were on the freeway and he decides to hit this guy up...The other guy had a 94-97 Integra LS...and my friend tries to showoff so he floors it up to the othre guy..and releases the gas..and PsssT...the other guy looked at us..and then he floored it also...then his BOV went off...My friend was like WTF...He made a total fool out of himself....he looked stupid and we just exited the freeway...How stupid WE feel..I was just wondering if anything like this has happened to anyone else..

Not yet, but I am sure it will happen to me pretty soon if I keep up what I'm doing. Of course, its funny doing that to people that are riding their bikes along the side of the road. I have gotten a few of them to turn and look but lately I have been working really hard on building up enough pressure to scare the crap out of them making them crash. hehehe.

Same thing happened to me. A nice looking Civic came up along side me and blew off. He probably thought I was stock with an exhaust. So I blew off back at him....except since I was running higher boost, it was waaaay louder.

He tried to take off after.....but I passed him pretty easily. My girlfriend just chuckled.

Damn thats whack yO!. Your friend just basically hit that foo up for nuthing. If I were the guy in the Teg I would think that you were tryin to hit me up like you wanna race. But then it like you didn't want none of me cuz you heard my BOV too and just boned out the freeway...

a lil bit after I got my turbo on I did that but this was to a dodge van and I saw the guys elbow stickin out. So I decided to let the boost build to about 6 psi and let it off right by him. So there I go, pssssssstttttttttt (greddy Type s) at him. I was like yeah, you hear that, I see the guy look at me like what the hell are you doing. At that very moment my fuel line popped off and the damn car died on me on the highway. hahaha, man I went from the far left lane cut to the far right and on to the shoulder. I felt like a dumb *** for showin off. But i was just excited about the fact of being in a boosted and in a swapped hatch... wont do that again... Damnit my ricer boost by didnt work. Now i just chill like i should have been doing.

I blow off at EVERYTHING!

Blowing off is notorious for being addictive I think.

I blow off at truckers, and get a thumbs up Yeah they know what a turbo is...

I blow off at teenagers hangin out at the drive up restaurant <Sonic Here>
They have no idea what it is, but I always hear "That car just sneezed I think" from at least one blonde.

I blow off at old people with their windows down on the road... They usually swerve around alot...

Hell, I blow off at buildings just to hear the sound reverb

Yes... I have completed step one. I am a boost addict. I'm not proud, but I admit it.

"I have been working really hard on building up enough pressure to scare the crap out of them making them crash. hehehe"

As a soon to be supercharged honda hybrid owner AND an avid road biker i find the above statement to be extreemly childish and dangerous. Not to mention criminal.

Please tell me you wern't serious. There ARE other people on the road you know and not all of them have four wheels and an engine. It's time for a compassion reality check dude.

blowing off is the best part of a turbo setup.......and damn its down right addicting. its funny when someone tries to pull or rev on you, then you just floor it and let off the blow off valve and the intimidation factor kicks in......the other car slows down and stays behind you the rest of the time.
