    Forge Splitter Install Help.

    Hey Guys,

    I purchased a Forge Splitter for my Golf GTI from ebay couple weeks back and finally received it this week, Anyways I tried putting it on tonight, taking those hose clamps was the hardest part of the hole process, guess partly my fault cos didn't have any tool that really helped so the trusty flat head had to do.

    Well I got the stock dv out and put the Forge Splitter in, But in the process the thin hose on top of the dv snapped when trying to take the clamp off, I'm not sure what it does, but it seems to suck in air.

    Car seems to start and I'm not picking up and errors codes, will stop by repco in the morning to buy a new hose, Anyways to my real problem the Forge Splitter doesn't seems to be working not sure if I put it in wrong, or its from the thin hose that's not connected but when I accelerate and release the Splitter doesn't release any air to the atmosphere so I'm not even sure if it's recirculating and I have it set up so it should release 30% atmosphere and recirculate 70% back in or something on the lines of that.

    Any help would be much appreciated,
    Thanks.

    That line at the top is what opens the valve.
    Get that hose fixed and it will probably all work.

    Fixed the hose today and it seems to work now, trying to figure out what setting is right now for a standard GTI, its not as loud as i thought it was though, and does anyone have the splitter set to 100% atmosphere setting without problems, I was thinking of doing it over the weekend to see how it goes.
