Nice piece, very well made and easy to install (no adaptation or welding fitments to it). Looks nice also (even in chrome, not too "ricey").
Not a huge difference in performance that I can ascertain (SOP sensations only, haven't had access to any dyno/tuning facilities just yet). You enjoy a loss of the OEM Bosch valve farting and it does seem smoother when it opens up compared to the stock diaphragm BOV setup. I haven't been able to keep the windows down or be outside of the car to see what noise is there with the Forge valve in place (the Bosch was definitely noticeable even in the cabin of the car).
Maintenance seems to nominal. I'd be apt to inspect the guts routinely to insure the grease is still making it's way around inside on the piston seal.
You can dig and find a decent amount of chatter on the board here for most of the brands. Might swing over to the Performance board too and see if any more specifics are to be found.
