Forge MBC install and use notes
Pics of Forge MBC location
Maybe I should put these somewhere else, but it seems like there are 100 different threads on this subject. Anyway, this is the most convienient place I could think of to put it, I'm not worried about hiding it, and din't feel like drilling any extra holes in my car.
How do you grease the Forge MBC? Do you put a dab on the ball? I saw some on the top of the unit but not much on the ball. I am asking because I changed to the heavy spring.
Is the grease the Mobil 1 synthetic bearing grease the grease that Mike@Forge recommends?

Forge,
Do you think you could PDF those installation instructions and make them available for download? I have not installed mine yet and would wait a smidge to get the exact directions from the manufacturer.

+1 and i would also want instructions on how to open the damn thing so i can grease it. I tried a couple of unsuccesful time to open it so i can grease it and change the spring and i just can't
Use the alan wrench that came with it and remove the two long screws from the bottom. Once you do that, the top and bottom halves come apart easily. Just be careful when you do that, because the ball can fall out.
I have my forge mounted in the same location (good choice!) IMO. I was not able to use the heavy spring, it would spike to 26psi & hit, I'm guessing here, the fuel cut. Have installed the soft spring and set the valve 35 clicks from fully closed. Holding 23 psi using 100 octane. I used the connecting method from the BOV to the actuator. I just greased the stems on the hose connections. Hope this helps, as I'm very happy with forge valve.
Received mine last monday from Buschur. Have the springs changed from previous versions?
I installed the heavy spring first thinking bigger is better but hit the fuel cut even with the with the valve backed off completly at 26psi. I also mispoke yesterday, what I meant to say was 35 clicks from full open (-) arrow not from full closed
The springs must have changed from previous versions on the Forge valves
