Forge blow of valve kit beware
https://www.forgemotorsport.com/High...uct--1487.html
Bought this kit for my 2024 US 8Y... it is not same as UK version! The US version has a diverter pipe with banjo fittings which requires a pipe plug that is not in the kit because UK version does not have this pipe assembly.
Also the recirculation hose in UK is not same as US. The UK version still uses hose/clamp method vs US has a 2-bolt flange with an o-ring. In order to cap off the US OEM box you will need a 2-bolt flange cap with a gasket or o-ring.
I guess this will be a project since ForgeMotorosports tech support had no idea that 2024 US a bit different, therefore the kit is NOT a direct fit nor is it complete. I will have to pull the tube and reverse engineer the flange and machine it myself or buy one if available on the market. I could also maybe just buy an aftermarket intake system that deletes that whole thing???
US diverter tube
IRoz install video clearly shows US version
2-bolt flange to OEM box
