Could anyone help? Pressure from the fuel Cap

Just wondering if anyone could help.

 

Recently I noticed the Supra is giving out what I consider is high pressure from the fuel cap after driving it hard. I only noticed this because after a drive I went to the petrol station to fill up.

 

Mine is a single turbo, running twin pumps individual feeds to the fuel rail and charcoal canister removed.

 

Any help appreciate it.

That's normal for a Supra that's had the charcoal canister deleted properly. The cap is a pressure relief valve @ 2psi.

 

I have the same. After driving I open the fuel cap and you hear a very audible 'hiss' as it releases the pressure. Never thought much of it

 

okay its only because I feel like recently the pressure seems to have gotten stronger (higher pressure) when opening the cap it feel like I had to slowly undo the cap otherwise it feels like it will shoot out lol
