I installed my forge 007 BPV today, it took me like less then 10 min., I deff. feel the difference, I went with the yellow spring for now, I have the stock pulley.

Hey Garage1217, do you have a link on where I can get more info on that HKS SSQV at? thanks.

The green spring should be enough. The yellow spring is a little too stiff and that piston needs to be able to be pushed so you can release that pressure. Not being able to do so can hurt the compressor over time.

I got it used, but you can just type in Forge 007 on Yahoo or Google and you'll get plenty of websites that sell it, I think the kit comes with different color springs, there's also a kit you can buy separate that comes with stiffer springs.

Thats what forge's website says but people have been running even stiffer springs so maybe you won't have a problem. Im gona switch to the yellow spring to see if theres any noticable difference.

Cool, can you, cause I do not have a boost gauge yet, so its really hard for me to tell if I'm building up the right amount of boost, I can say it feels allot better then before and it does release pressure at red line.

If it releases the pressure @ redline then theres really no problem. Once i get the clutch broken in ill let you know the difference. Do you get that really nice sound when you shift?

it was second gear...less load on the car...also .5 psi is negligable...could be minimal belt slip. Guys keep in mind that the numbers that forge has are based on turbo's. Pat from Forge came on here and realized the exact thing i was running into. The supercharger needed a stiffer spring in order to hit full boost than what a turbo would at the same psi levels. I ran the red spring with 2 washers with my 9.5 psi pulley, it was fine

I keep reading people saying they used the red spring with 2 washers, does forge sell that one separately? cause my kit did not come with it, thank you.

contact ecstuning...i think they sell the spring kit seperately. You could use the blue spring if you have that and just shim the crap out of it with like 4 washers
