Default Idle issue after dv/bov install???

i installed the forge "splitter"on my 01 1.8t and now i have a intermittent stalling issue. Its more noticible when tapping the gas at a light it wants to drop below 800 rpms and stalls once or twice a day....anyone else have this problem or some guidance as to how to fix this issue? thanks in advance

Did you install it correctly. It's the other way round from the Audi valve.

If its installed correctly adjust it until it 100% recirc and then back it off. I have heard that over 10% "blow off" can cause problems.

Why not install a normal bypass valve instead of a splitter?

Cool noises at the expense of performance?
