Like the title says, I am looking in the next few weeks for a IX bov(or comparable such as forge, etc).

i just sold mine to Tripp during his visit, sorry man. ask cleve if he has his old BOV. i wouldn't think he's using it with the power he's putting down.

Awww I just missed it then. I'm glad it went to Tripp though. He needs one just as bad as I do.

Sorry man! Just to warn you. I've got a Forge too and while it holds boost like crazy it flutters like crazy under partial throttle conditions. Mine is the non-adjustable one BTW. You can also contact Ed and see if he still has the adjustable one.

Thanks for the valve though Dylan. The cars running great. I personally think my Forge is leaking a bit and I need to call up Forge to get the accessories kit to get all the shims and stuff to see if that fixes it.

No problem Tripp. I've never heard of the Forge having problems. Does the stock IX valve work better then the Forge for you??

Thats the thing. I had a IX DV (might have been a JDM VIII, but not sure of the difference even though the IX DV i bought from you looks bigger) and it was causing the car to want to die at idle. I posted something up on EvoM about it and everyone just said it was the valve combined with my Apex'i intake. Ed wanted a metal DV, so I traded with him for his forge and he let me try both the adjustable and non-adjustable one. I think I was just lazy and didn't adjust the adj. Forge one well enough as it was having the same effect on my car and the non-adj. Forge worked great. Since Im heading up and down the mtn. a lot to go boarding I needed something that wouldn't flutter and make the car jerk like the Forge did, but the DV i bought from you works great now.
