Default Check Engine light on after installing Forge DV!?

Has anyone had their check engine light come on after installing an aftermarket DV? I just removed the old version Forge valve from my 180 TT, and replaced it with the redesigned aluminum piston DV. Everything worked great for a day - then the light came on. Car still seems to run fine, I'm just afraid that it could be doing some damage to the turbo if the spring tension/pressure in too great. Any ideas? Thanks for the help!

Default Usually..not always...the situation you described is associated with a loose hose/clamp...

check all the connections to the DV and any hoses in the area of the install. Also assume you check the fuel filler cap to make sure it is on tight.
