    Anyone running it? Thoughts?

    Currently running Forge. What is the life expectancy on the Forge DV's? Been running it for close to 100k miles...

    The Forge should be good for a lot longer. I have a Bailey's DV which is pretty much the same construction as the Forge. It has well over 200K miles on it and still works just fine. I service it occasionally to keep it operating properly and check it for leaks whenever I boost pressure test. I see no reason why the Forge shouldn't provide the same service.

    Just this one crappy video that i took shortly after the install. I did a rolling start from the side of the road. No clutch dumping or hard shifting. Kinda hard to hold the camera, drive and shift at the same time!
