Steam and Blow off

Tonight I was out at a Cruise and I started up B/C to show off my new exhaust note for a buddy. It started fine I goosed the throttle a bit and I hear a pop and steam comes out from under the hood. I shut it off and pop the hood nothing looks blown it look fine. I start her back up and do the same thing nothing I can't get it to happen again. It sounded like a Bleed off from a Super Charger but I don’t have one.

Any ideas. The car seems fine thou.

Is each spark plug wire going to the proper spark plug? How high did you rev it?

Yea it all looks fine under there. I just taped it,it didnt red or anything.

I had it out today to the shop(NON DEALER) for free oil change and we looked and didnt find anything.
No the ricer kid didnt do anything i think he's afraid to say anything to me since he has a lame Ricer car.

Well if it hasn't done it since, then it's definitley not that the spark plugs wires are crossed. But you say you just tapped it, not redline. Redlining isn't really the issue. You shouldn't free rev an engine past 3000rpms.
