How free should the piston move inside the Forge 007 DV?>>>
Mine already came pre-lubed with a pink color lube. Do I need to lube it a little bit more right out of the box? I'm still having trouble with slow, sluggish throttle and boost after installing the Forge as compared to the OEM valve in the high gears. Could it be that my car is in limp mode? If so how do I get it out of limp mode?

Smooth and easy under spring pressure. Lube no more.
A properly operating DV will not be sluggish: it'll hold against boost pressure. I opine you have another problem. VAG is your friend.

Transitional stuff with a diaphram valve is always faster and more responsive than a piston type..
When on the gas and both are holding boost there shouldn't be any difference in feel though..(unless one is leaking)
