Your blow off valve might be stuck shut. When's the last time you cleaned it? If you have'nt cleaned it in awhile I would start there.

what mods along with the BOV do you have? being female has nothing to do with being a bad mech. there are guys on this forum who know nothing about cars in general. i ride with a chic (motorcycles) on Sundays whos the best mech i know. i am sure someone here can help. lol

does the car idle funny? check to see if all your vacuum lines and IC hoses are intact and secured properly.
