dumb-*** eclipse
I was driving on the freeway and I saw this riced out Eclipse on the lane to the right of me. It was a crap color with unpainted bodykits, dents everywhere, and a tard wing. As I passed him at approximately 5MPH, I heard a BOV when I was right next to him. I was thinking that sounded like BS. After I passed him, he changed over to the back of me and then to the lane on the left of me. This time he speeds up to slowly pass me and I heard the BOV again and half a second later, I heard it again. At that time, it really sounded like BS.
I think this is the first time anyone tried to pull any $hit with me on the road. Too bad I don't have pics of the tard.

Nevermind. It's the stupid **** fake bov that he kept making right next to me that makes him a tard. I was going 75 and he was doing 70, that means I was passing him at 5 MPH.

If I say it's fake, it's fake dang it. Stop asking me. I can just feel it.
I don't know, I guess it's a combination of things. His engine noise did not change. He was passing me at a constant speed. The last two sounds were so close to each other to be made by a real one.
If I am wrong, please educate my .

In an automatic if you redline the engine until it shifts bov releases, then if you take your foot off the gas immediately after it will release again. Not sure if this might be what happened with you, because like you said he was passing at a constant speed. *shrugs*

The guy probably had one of those speakers that sound like a BOV. They sell them on Ebay for like 139.99
