So I got my new Forge DV and the Hitachi Coil Packs "E" a few days ago. Read the PDF on how to put the Valve on (Shows it on the 225, but, I figure it's gotta be the same for the 180 as well.) And while looking at that picture, My OEM DV Is upside down. So instead of the nipple pointing "up" its pretty much pointing towards the driver. So, im thinking the previous owner before me did do something to the car when he/she owned it. Anything to be concerned about or can that DV function "backwards"?
Either way Ill be putting the new Forge one on today if I can find some better pictures so I myself don't put this one on upside down or backwards either. And hopefully the oem DV didnt dmg anything/weaken parts.

 

they did that because they wanted some noise. No damage done. The forge one needs to have the nipple pointed up to function the way they designed it.

 

ahh beautifull, thanks for the help Cincy =)

Hey while I have you here. Do you have the boost range per colored spring chart? I checked forges site and didn't stumble across it. Some one posted it on here but I don't remember who. Figure the Forge came stock w/ the green one in it, im guessing that's the lowest boost spring.

 

i believe its green for stock (you may need a shim) then yellow (chipped) then blue.

 

woot ty again. Im hoping this is an ez enough install/tune for me to understand. I don't know what to feel/hear to know if i've hit the nail on the head.

 

you cant mess it up. youll be fine. You just undo the old claps and intall it making sure you reattach the vac line and your done.

 

green - 5-15
yellow - 15-23
blue - 23-30
red - 30+
