Question Regarding Forge Valve and APR Chip

Does anybody know if the forge valve is supposed to make a swooshing sound much like a blow off valve. I was under the impression it wasnt. Ive had the valve for about a month and have not noticed this sound before. I just installed the APR chip today and have immediately noticed the sound inbetween shifts after lettin off the clutch. What are ur thoughts?

PS. The APR Chip is awesome. If you havent gotten it already I definitely recommend it.

Maybe your piston is stuck.

Re: Question Regarding Forge Valve and APR Chip

The seals in the valve are torn,it shouldnt make a whoosh sound,it happened my A4 1.8T recently,the blue plastic piston has been replaced with an alloy one(presumably to sort out the different heat expansion rates of the two materials).
