When you install it does the opening for the piston face down? Thanks.

 

yes

 

^^^ what he said

 

The hose clamp that is on the vacum line that connects to the bpv is sideways, its going to be a bitch to unclamp.

 

90* bent extra long nose pliers. No car guy should be without them.

 

I jus use my fingers, they're not that small, I've taken it off & put it back a couple times

 

Can someone please post a pic of the correct position on the install, and where does the vac line go?

 

I don't have a pic but the vac line connects into the nipple of the forge bpv. Just disconnect from the factory one and place it on the new one.

 

you get the idea

 

lol. thanks man thats what I figured just wanted to be sure, I swear everytime ive seen one on here they dont have that vac line connected to the forge.

 

It wouldn't work if the vac line wasn't connected.

 

I know thats why I wanted to get a pic and some info, but thanks guys im gonna go put this on. Im gonna try without removing my intake, guess ill try green spring since its already in there but dont want get that war goin.

 

nipple is adjustable

 

is there any how to on how to install a forge BPV? i have a stock bpv, and i am a bit interested in getting one.

im surprised if there isnt because there is a how to on just about everything else... lmaoo

 

its pretty basic.

Take out the 3 screws.
take off the vac line.
but the forge in with the opening facing down.
3 screws back in.
connect the vac line and your done.

much easier if you take the intake out.

 

thats about it^^^ it took me less time than gettin my headlights off an back on straight

 

Yeah, what these guys said. It was the easiest upgrade ive done so far. I have the kn intake and I didnt even take off the intake. Honestly taking off the intake wouldnt have made it any easier, it wasnt in my way. The hardest part was getting the vac line off. That sucker didnt want to let go of that nipple.

 

What exactly is this Forge BPV supposed to do? Just noise, or does it actually increase power or boost? Any solid figures on what, if anything, it does?

 

It's mostly just a stock replacement. The stock BPV can rip and occasionally stick. The Forge BPV is just a better alternative.

 

Ah ok.. thx.. I've no problems with my stocker yet :P (KoW)

 

i actually havent looked to see where it is. where is it located? and is it plastic? (the stock one ofcourse)

also, whats the hardest part of replacing your bpv?

 

How much fun is it trying to get the bolts back into the new BPV?

Haven't done this yet, bit seems like it'd be a bitch to start threading.
I can see me dropping bolts an swearing many times...

 

not hard at all haha

 

To clarify even further since this is what I was asking while reading the thread. Do you face the opening towards the firewall or towards the radiator?

 

I have mine facing towards the floor
