I have bad idle now, so tonight I try to ajust the TB cable and take it for a ride, boost around 14psi, and let it go, I heard the flutter sound, so when I get home, I try to turn to solf hafl turn, then I heard a pop, my bov thread is strip ( I guess I add to much tupon tape ), you guy think that greddy can get me another replacement ?. I need suggestion please, I already gave away my factory BOV.

its not screw thread strip, but the hole on the bov, that you screw the screw in, that thread is strip.

you can get a heli coil set(spelling dont know) make sure to get the right size. It should work on the bov. Then u have to tap the tread out with a die then insert the stainless steel insert and then u can use the original bolt. think the set is expensive though.
