Resolved 2G GSX dies when I rev it

[DumbtruckDSM]

Hello, I recently bought a GSX and noticed I wasn’t making boost at all and the coolant hoses were bad. So I replaced the hoses, added a new BOV (not circulated) and a new radiator.

As I go to turn on the car it starts chopping like a v8! So I check my hoses and I spray soap and water to see if I’m leaking and I don’t see bubbles. So then I replaced the O2 sensor and replaced my exhaust gasket that’s in the front because I was also getting a really strong gas smell. I go to turn it on and the car doesn’t chop anymore but then when it warmed up it started chopping again and when I rev it the rpm needle will drop all the the way down and die.

Oh and the gas smell is still there, it’s strong

What year GSX did you buy?

What do you mean "chopping like a v8"? Can you make a video of it doing so?

It’s a 1998 gsx, it just sounds like it has a big cam in it, well before it did but in this video I fixed some leaks and it sounds better but when it warms up the rpms start to go up and down again but not as bad anymore

The problem is fixed now, I didn’t know how bad it’ll run without having your BOV recirculating so a buddy of mine gave me his old tube and I put it in and it works now! My rpm’s aren’t going down anymore! I ran a HKS one but since I switched to a Greddy type S I didn’t know I had to recirculate it.
