89-turbo stalling problem

Can anyone here tell me why would an 89 Turbo Supra stall? The guy who is selling it tells me that it is because of the Blitz blow-off valve that he installed on it, is that possible?

The car drives fine when you keep the RMPs low (in the 1500-3000 range), but when you bring it up past about 5000 RPM, when the needle comes back down the engine dies. Is this a big problem or not? And will it be cured with a stock, HKS, Greddy, or A'PEXi blow-off valves?

Any help would be appreciated as I am purchasing this car after this weekend.

yes a aftermarket bov can cause stalling problems and is probably not needed if he is running around stock or a little above stock boost levals have him put the stock bov on it or replace with the new HKS ssbov which will address the above stalling problems DZ

Thank you for the information. I already bought the car and will try the HKS blow-off when I get a chance.
