Angry dump valve pipe came off is my engine damaged

hi all i was driving home tonight and the pipe on the back of my hks blow off valve has come off at some point the pipe that connect to my intake manifold i didnt notice until i got home. my drive home is about 20 miles and was driving pretty fast all the way racing a pulsar which i beat i might add ! but when i puled up at home i noticed my car running pretty rough and the engine was moving on its mounts. now the blow off could not have being working with this pipe off but the question is could this have damaged my engine, it seems to be running ok noe with the pipe back on could it have caused any damage though thats the question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

very unlikely.. extra force on turbo blades as air not dumping and would have been rich due to manifold leak but suck a short jouney it will be no problem.

Had the same thing with HKS D/V - the plastic "connector" blew apart on the way back from JAE 2 years ago - superglued it back together and has not been a problem since!
