5 of 5 EXCELLENT...GET ONE!!! September 12, 2008
Reviewer: Brian Anderson from West Palm Beach, FL United States  
I have a Mazda CX-7. Man...this peice is so beautiful. I bought it in black to keep an OEM look. It looks VERY much like original equipment aside from a little bit of glossyness that you cant get with a plastic(the forge bpv is pure metal)

I bought this for my vehicle because the stock peice is so worthless. It is a plastic peice that leaks boost so I was quite excited to get this thing on.

Installation is simple and easy. Just unbolt the old one...disconnect two tubes...bolt on the new peice...and reconnect the tubes. It took longer to find my tools than to actually do the work.

Performance is sweet. Shifting is smoother. The sound is rarely heard in normal driving and is more frequent in places like parking lots where you are more prone to sudden deceleration.

I recommend this part to anyone who wants to make their vehicle more fun and efficient.

5 of 5 Great product September 5, 2008
Reviewer: Bill C. from New Hyde Park, NY United States  
What a great product.  I have no other upgrades on my car yet other than this BPV.  After installing the blue spring, the bpv sounds perfect.  Not too loud not too soft.  

Easy install, easy to swap out springs and add spacers.  Great sound even with out after market intake....WHICH, I am awaitign my SRI.  

The ssssping sound is different than the whoosh sound, so you get to stand out from the crowd as well.

Fast delivery.

5 of 5 Nice BPV! September 3, 2008
Reviewer: Keith Lawson from East Islip, NY United States  
The install was relatively easy and the results over OEM was well worth the price. The sound is perfect(a rush of air with a metallic ping). Having boost spool in a timely fashion, increases the Mazdaspeed3 'FUN FACTOR' even more.

4 of 5 Best direct replacement for stock BPV August 29, 2008
Reviewer: Jacek Materna from Nepean, ON Canada  
I'm not a fan of going wooosh, too old for that. So i chose this. Easy install. Holds boost more consistently at top end. Noise is ok, its grown on me. I like it. First mod i ever did. Oh ya - blue spring is must.

5 of 5 Obnoxious August 15, 2008
Reviewer: Mark Fioretto from Barrington, IL United States  
This thing is loud! Now this may just be because i have the cp-e cold air intake but this thing turns heads. i actually think i scared someone on the road today. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who likes the sound of a turbo car. The strength of the thing is fantastic as well. However, if you are not into the sounds or you just dont want to be noticed i wouldnt suggest this particular bpv. I happen to love the loud metallic ping noise so for me this was the perfect buy!

4 of 5 Forge BPV July 17, 2008
Reviewer: Michael East from Lake Charles, LA United States  
VERY easy install, the Silicone Recirculation tube had a smaller diameter than the OEM one and solved the problem others have with the hose being a little loose.  High pitched whistle-chirping sound when pressure is released, and sounds kinda wimpy.  It's different than most BOV's though so I like it.  Great quality. Slight but noticeable difference in the spool up speed of the turbo from the stock BPV.

4 of 5 Forge BPV April 28, 2008
Reviewer: Jason Das Boot G. from San Antonio, TX United States  
Installed my Anodised black one with an HKS R-Suction Intake. Has a distinctive BOV Chirp very nice and puts a smile on my face. Only reason I gave it 4 stars was that the Forge BPV boost tube is a bit smaller than the stock hose and clamps which weren't quite tight enough. So I had to use a zip tie a to make sure it stayed tight. Probably didn't need the zip tie but felt safer with the zip tie securing the hose on the tube.  Other than that... love it. BPV Chirp turns heads and a quality product overall. BPV comes with 3 springs with different PSI ratings. Yellow 15 to 23 psi Blue 23 to 30 psi and Red 30 plus psi.

4 of 5 Forge BPV February 23, 2008
Reviewer: Tighe from Santa Cruz, CA United States  
Installed my chrome one yesterday (with an HKS R-Suction Intake)!  Sounds like a BOV, but nice that it's not since I have to deal with the California smog law junk!  Looks great.  My only "hit" is the stock hose clamps weren't quite tight enough on the Forge BPV tubes, so I had to use different hose clamps to make sure it stayed tight.  Other than that... love it!
