Anyone using the Forge adaptor on their GTI?

Thanks @gavs and @guy for the imput.

Do the full BOV conversion that Forge sell suffer the same issues as the spacer (boost leak etc)?

@gavs are you running the Viezu intake? Would love to hear it.

Don't know about the full conversion, but we do know that VW use a plastic piston that is electronically operated - for the fastest & most accurate response.

The problem with piston types (and vac operated versions) is the response is slower (an alloy piston requires more inertia to shift) and the DSG box is looking for a millisecond response.

When you get a delay in that area, your shift suffers. Thats why they dropped Vac operated ones when the DSG was introduced.

Believe me, VW have spent a fortune devising this DV, I don't think any CNC'd item is going to come close to matching what they have. I have actually never heard of one of the new 1.4 versions ever failing either!

Have a listen, sorry about the poor quality but you can definately hear it dumping boost!
