I need a new BPV (don't want a BOV), wondering if anyone has ever tried to install this one in the stock location for boost around 15psi, and what you thought of it.

thanks

it takes a real man to go aftermarket BPV over BOV

heh, I want something that will:

A: fit in stock location
B: act as a BPV, not vent (I don't like the sound, I know... sacriliege to some)
C: don't want to have to weld a mounting bung on my coated HKS pipe, otherwise would go aftermarket BOV with recirc kit

thought about going SSQV with hose inlet adapter and recirc kit, but I thought that would look clumsy, so i nixed it.

A friend of mine had one on his A4, It looked like it was a quality piece. His VDub friend had one as well. Not much of a sample but neither of them had any trouble with them.

Edit: they had the older version, it looked a little different. But forge has a good name. I was gonna buy one to replace the bosch on my supra but I sold it, that was like 4 years ago.

Just do it, or spend twice that on a greddy rs with a recirulation fitting

Bosch is nice, cheap and can handle tons of boost and vents tons of air.
