Forge Splitter Blow-off valve

Those guy's at Forge are always thinking of something new. I have never seen anything like this before. Talk about the best of both worlds. Need to drop them a line to see if these would work / fit our configuration.

for what purpose?
this woudl strictly just be for when you don't want sound sand when you do.

recir is required if the air is already metered, in this case its not and we use a map sensor. This gives no benefit other then choice.

No argument here. I love the sound of a BV and two BV must sound awesome.

If this allows you to
maintIn the integrity of the original design and let's you play BV music, it's a win / win.

Okay guys I sent Forge a message about whether this BOV will work on the 135i and I received this response:

Sadly the splitter will not work for you. We do offer this solution however

I actually ended up replying to her email and explained that there would be a lot of interest for this product and if there was already something in the works, and if not, could they make something specifically for our 135i/335i's? I explained that there was a fair bit of interest in my forums for something like this. Maybe if we can get a couple more members to email her they might get more keen? Worth a shot.

I dropped them an email last night. Everyone needs to drop them an email.
It's designed for our setup, proabably not for our size turbos? A little revLving perhaps? Just guessing

I got this response from Forge last night:

The product I linked to is a recirculating valve setup. Not sure what you're looking for if not that. We also have an intercooler coming.
