nightmare lol!

 

[Vin-R]

best way mate is to do a search on the forum. theres loads of stuff under Forge Split R

 

[Cupra Ross]

The best way to set it up is to put it straight back in the post to Forge, failing that, melt it down and make a nice set of aluminium door numbers.

Get a good and proven valve like the FMCL007P and use what you've saved for a panel filter.

Couldn't of put it better myself!!!!!!

so the 007p vale is the best one to get. are they easy to set up or do i need to get a full on mechanic to do it for me?


i did hear once that fitting anything other than a factory fit to a cupra r messes it up somehow

 

[D.K]

They do work.......Honest
Once fitted turn the top till it stops clicking.
Make sure you fit it the right way round to, It sits on it's side

i had nout but problems on mine to be fair. i swapped mine for a bailey dv30 and £30 the octy passed me with it on and wouldnt say it was any louder than mine

 

[Deleted member 20376]

ive had the baileys dv30 the forge split-r and the forge 007p theres no differance of sound between the baileys n the forge 007p, the spilt-r gives a nice sound if you like that just a bitch to set up.
performance wise there aint no difference between them all i had the spilt r at high boost they start to leak but ive only heard this.

The only thing that may happen is the car running a little bit richer. I went to a 007p from a Split-r and now iv gone back again lol ^^

it is personal pref, i would like to try the turbosmart one tho, ive always heard of turbosmart being really good. im not saying that forge arent good just no ones really commented on the turbosmart one.

 

[Lodgey180]

yes i quiet fancy the kompact series turbosmart

not bad for 150 nicker

 

[Deleted member 20376]

yeah looks smart but duno how it performs. wud love some feedback on it.

 

[Lodgey180]

is it lee69 who has the GFB 50/50
similar to the turbosmart and he swears by it

 

[olliep]

i have a split-r its fine and does the job but since i set it to full recirc my fuel economy has improved biggo timeo!

 

[br0wny21]

ive just this minute put mine on ive got the 20 vt leon not LCR screwed ratchet in all way and then back 5 clicks its runnin standard apart from de-cat pipe and engine management lights come on am well pissed off any idea lads?

 

[br0wny21]

its a split-r by the way

 

[Deleted member 20376]

i spoke to forge when i had 1 they said it should be wound in around 16 clicks but when the valve is off if u the push the piston in with your finger you will see the gold piston go up. if you twist the top until the gold piston is pushed up as far as it will go. you will notice the more you twist the more the gold piston is visable. the hole should always be left open. about 16-25 clicks is ok depending on your set up.
i think maybe you twisted it the wrong way.
