Default Forge vs. Bailey Valve

OK, replaced my Bailey valve (which had a melted piston after a track event at Laguna Seca) with a Forge valve from Stratmosphere about three weeks ago. The Forge got a hard workout at Willow Springs (3+ hours of track time all using the race gas program) and it appears to be as good as new.

Your mileage may vary, but the Forge seems the way to go if you plan to run hard.

Default Doesn't it have a higher thermal tolerance rating as well?...

It may be placebo, but I swear I can feel the smoother shifts provided by the better boost holding capabilities compared to my stock Bosch.
