Forge BPV v2???

Postby rush24 » 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

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.

You need a boost gauge/dashhawk to monitor boost levels

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.
