Im going to be venting the Forge 007 Diverter valves to atmosphere tonight and giving the filters a good cleaning as im sure its never been done. It looks like the easiest way it to remove the headlight and access from the top? Any thoughts?

easier to just remove the bumper its only about 10 screws underneath then two nuts on each fender for a total of 4 and then undo the plastic push things on the front top bumper

I went the head light route. It was pretty easy. Just removed the top and the bulb and you are able to get to it all. I ran the BOV to atmosphere and WOW what a sound difference, Im very happy. The one thing I did notice is that both valves are slightly open at idle as I can feel air exiting. I have to put it all back together tonight but i;; be calling forged tomorrow to see what they say. The car runs the same and still comes into boost hard. However if that valve is 100% supposed to be closed at idle then I could be coming into boost earlier.

Some more research I think I got my answer
Right from Tial on LS1Tech
" This seems way harder than it has to be...LOL
you're over thinking
if air meter is before the bov - bov needs to be closed at idle
if air meter is after the bov - it doesn't matter
one is not better than the other as long as the BOV is functioning"
