maybe I'm wrong, but I swear I remember reading that. Maybe I'm going crazy.

Yeah Bleach is right. My 280zx was a 3 speed auto. I had issues with the motor stalling in stop and go traffic when I had larger injectors. With the stock injectors, there were no problems minus the slight stumble that any MAF setup gets with an open atmosphere bov, but it wasn't anything bad. When I went with the 370's and then the 440's, the motor would stall out easily in stop and go, so I was stuck manually shifting my a/t in traffic until the speeds increased again.

I posted a vid of my car in the exhaust thread and you'll see that the bov doesn't really affect the driving too much.
