I washed my car yesterday and cleaned my tires and for some reason now once I hit 40MPH or try to pick up speed quickly the boost is spraying out my car, almost like a BOV is in the open position but I have a BOV spacer on it not the BOV. Anyone have any ideas what it could be? And what I can do to try to fix it . Im running out of theories and ideas

where is it spraying out of your car? do you just hear it?

It could still be the BOV, it's just an electric solenoid.

also check all the boost hoses, they like to pop off.

I just hear it when I’m driving any faster then 35-40MPH

where are the hoses located exactly I don’t have a lift do jacks are about to be my bestfriend. It’s been acting find up until I washed it last night .

they go from the turbo (in front of the passenger foot well) to the intercooler (front bumper below the radiator) and from the other side of the radiator up to the engine.

while you are under there, look to see if the BOV is open, it could be that. they are known to fail
