Forge "sword" valves FOUND

[AustinK]

Hey all, I recently came across a few of the Gen 1 Forge re-circulation valves, we are down to 4 of them, I wanted to let you guys know in case there were a couple people who specifically wanted that valve. Forge BPV | Stock Location Recirculation Valve

That link is for the current style, the older one looks slightly different and has the signature sword sound. Call me at 360-260-2675 if you are interested in one of these last 4 valves. the Gen 2 does not make the sword sound whatsoever.

I love having ninja sword fights under my hood, a must if you wanna feed your inner ricer.

[kpacker51]

I have a gen 2 and that valve. If no sword sound, what sound am I hearing??




EDIT: Reading Fail

You meant Gen 2 valve, not Gen pu.

Carry on.

Damn, just bought one last week...

[Sum1UDidntC]

do you mean gen1 recirculation valves or recirculation valves for the gen1 ms3?

[ricknm]

Gen one recirc. valves. The one that makes the sword clash. I believe forge no longer makes them, so this is to say that if you want one they have a few left.

[ABolewski]

What about the mug damnit!!!

[KyleMS32010]

They are still made

[Sum1UDidntC]

And they will work with the pu with CP-E FMIC location and whatnot?

[ricknm]

corksport made a fb post saying they dont make them anymore..

[KyleMS32010]

Ordered mine directly from Forge last week after I was told they weren't made anymore by multiple vendors.

[AustinK]

Forge makes a Version 1 and a Version 2, the version 1 has a first generation and a second generation. The Version 1 gen 1 is the sword making valve pictured above. the Ver. 1 gen 2 looks identical but the grooved outside where you turn to replace the spring is shaped like a giant bolt, the picture on our webpage. The Ver. 2 is completely different and the piston is actually horizontal rather than vertical like the ver.1 gen 1 and 2.

Regardless, we sold the initial 6 valves already sorry guys.

What about the mug? @Austin@Corksport;

[Speed3in215]

So u can't order the v1 ever again? Not even through forge?

They can still be purchased from Forge directly, model number FMDVMAZ3. It's the first gen V1 that makes the ping or "swords clashing" sound.

I am sorry, that mug was custom made for me as a christmas present, as for the valves, we sell the version 1 and 2 on our website, both are still available for all Mazdaspeeds. The only one that was rare and is now gone is the version 1 generation 1 valve. It fits all Mazdaspeeds but it was the only one that offered the sword sound. I am blown away on how quickly these sold out.

Thank you guys who happened to get an order in!

We have talked to forge, the photo is of the Gen 1 but they do not make it any more.

I'm sure thats a Version 1 generation 2. I highly doubt that Corksport would be making stuff up simply to sell 6 Recirc valves. Forge probably hasn't updated the picture on their site.

I just bought this exact one and its a gen 1 V1 with the sound.

Have not heard yours. It sounds identical to this video.

LOL. Yup. That's EXACTLY what mine sounds like. I don't know about ninja swords...but it's definitely different.

[KyleMS32010]

Yeah, I think it's more of a ping. It's the same sound that my old VW had when I ran my forge 007 in reverse.

[Tomas]

I don't have a ninja sword.
But that sounds like a god damn ninja sword.

Any longer term negatives with the metal on metal clang?

Liked because i lol'd. Not sure if serious but not likely.

We order our valves directly from Forge, we have been told the photo on their website is the Gen1 version 1. when in reality when you order them they are the Gen2 version 1 in the picture below. Their stock photo is just of the old valve. We had so many people call in wondering why their valve wasn't making the sword sound that we contacted Forge and that's what they told us. We were excited to see a rare shipment of this Gen1 valve that we had to tell people that have been looking for them for a long time, New or Used.
