Default The Forge BOV does cause it to run rich...

That is why they took it off their site, but you can still get one if you contact them about it.

There is some info on BOV's and BPV's in the performance section a little way down.

Default I really like how they flat out said that Forge had found a work around for the Motronic...blah blah

blah, yet another fine example of people simply making claims for the sake of business...I'm sure knowing Stratmosphere they probably offered to replace all of the Forge BOV's with BPV's though...so I suppose if that's the case it's not so bad. But honestly when you see what is basically a BOV with a foam doughnut wrapped around it you can be pretty damn sure there's nothing revolutionary about that which would fix the trailing throttle richness issue...hmmmphhh.
