• Forge BPV v2???

Posted: **Fri Sep 10, 2010 9:14**

So I was thinking about buying the new Forge BPV v2...From what I heard it eliminated the "ping" sound and got a new design....Has anyone heard the new one?? Does anyone have the new one?? Just want to see if it's worth buying....

Thanks:D

Kinda....I own the first gen Forge...bought the Synapse and never installed it...so now I'm looking at the v2 Forge...like the new design...

Ah, didn't know you never installed the Synapse. I can't really talk either though. I had the HKS, then back to the stocker, and now the Synapse.

How was the TurboSmart? I'm looking at getting one. Just want it to be functional and quiet. Any recommendations?

If you want functional and quiet, stay with the stock one...

This. The people claiming the stock one leaks usually don't know what they're talking about. There are people running the stock BPV with over 20psi of boost and it holds fine. If all you want is functional and quiet and your stocker isn't leaking, just leave it.

Well aaalllllrighty then.

Just curious, how do you know if the valve is leaking?

Im using my stock one now too, sounds nice with just the intake/inlet combo.

You need a boost gauge/dashhawk to monitor boost levels

I have a 100% loss of boost. :lol:

I didn't have it very long but I liked it...very simple design, very easy to clean and just a bit louder than the oem bpv with a way better sound!
Kepp in mind this is the 150.00 one not the dual port "hybrid" bov/bpv.
As far as recommendations...I'd go with a synapse or forge, I'm actually putting the synapse back on my car but I've been running a forge v1 bpv and love it.
To be honest there all pretty good.
