Nice write up

And just an FYI: the kit DOES include zipties and a long enough length of hose for the installation, or it should. If not, just contact us and we will send what's missing.

Funny this should be bumped now. I was having a lot of boost problems last week and the DV was blowing off everything over 10psi.

I found the problem this weekend. The plastic base on the solenoid which is held on a metal base by two screws, broke and fell, causing a vacuum line to rub a hole in it on the hot shaft below. The fix was easy, replacing the vacuum line. However, I had to rig the solenoid back to its mount and I zip tied all of the hoses together so if it breaks again, at least nothing will drop and get damaged.

Overall, the performance response from the Forge DV is the best that I've experienced. I'm now back to full boost and happy again.


Cheers!
