Well, when I used the dejon spring, it threw that code but only happens when air is not dense(humid/hot conditions). The dejon spring also caused excessive turbo "flutter" in theses conditions. I think joe is on the right path here. Lube that biotch. It seems the valve is not opening fast enough.

what kind of lube? it's got some red grease in there now.

Mobil 1 grease

Yes it needs lube! I just made a thread on this. My car kept throwing a p2261, took the forge out and completely apart and the grease was black and clumpy. I cleaned the whole thing and regreased with mobil 1 synthetic red grease. Its not the spring causing the cel I had both springs and kept throwing the CEL, then after reading threads on CSS.net others have said it gets stuck when it needs regreased.

when i get the green spring & change it out, i will look at greasing it, but i've only had it installed for 3 months & it popped the p2261 code from day 1.

Thats weird, mine just started and ive had it for about 8 months. Greased it and CEL is gone.

well, so much for "great customer service". what a bunch of *******s. called forge a couple weeks ago & told them ever since i installed their valve, i get a check engine light daily. the 1st guy said no problem, i'll send you a green spring. 1 week later, call them again & get another guy, who says the 1st guy isn't in & there's no record of them sending anything to me. the 2nd guys says he'll send me a green spring. another week goes by & no spring at all. so calling out for SS FAN, if your offer still stands, i can use that green spring!

Dude, grease it. The longer you wait, the bigger chance you have of damaging your turbo.

Its not the spring...

These guy's have a good point, I'm going to grease mine just as preventative maintenance. I have two green ones in my box 0 springs, I only have one SS so you can have one pm me where to send it.
