I have a CP from Evolution Racewerks and the HKS BOV never any problem with either.

I think the snap ring just wasn't seated all the way. I seated it properly and had my boost at about 20psi and held fine.. that pop though dam made me sweat for a minute followed by a half engine light I thought I blew something more serious.. I was out running it most of last night and things are good. was just weird. I heard nothing but good things about the ER CP n BOV and im happy with them it was just that one instance, was curious if it happened to others.
