Forge Blow Off Valve Kit

Has anyone installed one of these Forge Blow Off Valve Kits?

https://www.ecstuning.com/b-forge-pa.../fmdvr56a~frg/

Would it work on an automatic transmission and do you lose power? and would it be easy to do for a beginner?

No loss in power, but if you are not tuned, it will be a waste of money. Just make sure you have the latest EOM diverter valve, and add a blow-off plate.

@njaremka This might sound dumb, but with the EOM Diverter valve and the blow off plate, will that make the cool noise? Lol.

@ECS Tuning As always, thank you for replying

@njaremka Will the pierburg EOM Diverter valve and the torque solutions blow off valve adaptor cause a check engine light?

I’m running the newest dv, Alta spring, forge knock off spacer, no issues no lights. If you are afraid of a cel then maybe you shouldn’t be making any mods. These cars have been out long enough and this forum is full of knowledge all you need is to search around and read the threads. I get that you don’t want to see the cel, but that’s just part of modding, you are changing out factory parts for performance parts.
