were you given the forge bpv or something?

it's mainly just sound, possibly hold boost a little better, and if its the forge one don't have to worry about tearing

It's on my list of ways to waste money. The stock BPV works fine if you're not pushing big-boost and it doesn't require greasing, like the Forge does.

I've heard it's kind of a waste but I'm basically getting it for nothing so it's not that much of a problem ya know
