I just recently got my blow off valve recirculated. It's an hks ssqv with a recirc fitting. Its seems better, to an extent. It doesn't buck as much if I go on/off throttle in the same gear but it still swings rich on the WB (usually 11-10 between shifts.) It also still wants to stall out after letting off, like before. I have link and my airflowperrev is good and I don't seem to have any vac leaks to suggest it is leaking from the new tube.

On a side note, it seems I have a bad PCV valve, I was just going to cut the tube between the pcv valve and the Intake manifold and put one of those kynar check valves there, is that okay for now?
 
PCV valve is cheap to replace so I would not recommend anything but replacement.
How much boost are you running?
 
Did you route the valve cover breather to the intake pipe? And do the new PCV valve plus the check valve.

Did you reset the ECU? It wont relearn unless you reset it.
 
First thing to do in a situation like this is to check for boost leak.
Second, fix all the leak you didn't even know you had.
Third, adjust the biss the correct way. Very easy with dsmlink and not too bad without it. Just follow the instructions on VFAQ.
Good luck.

+1 on this.

When I changed my FMIC setup, I had to wait for Mitsubishi to send me the factory recirc tube, and went about 3 days venting. After getting it recirculated again, it acted up for a good while until the ECU finally got itself dialed in. Best bet is to reset it.
