good question

email Forge for an answer cos i don't know  :laugh:

though looking at the info it looks like you can adjust it  - i presume to fine tune things  :undecided:

EDIT
just read it again - looks like you can modify the position of the vaccum tube so if yours for some reason is an awkward fit you can change the position to stop the tube being pinched / kinked  :nerd:

good stuff - glad i won't be the only when we're told its wrong  :laugh: :laugh:

kind of makes sense to allow you to position the pipe just right - stops the pipe getting trapped  :smiley:

OK, been in contact with forge about this and got the answer.

Basically there is a difference in the valve due to the adjustment but not for our cars.

Apparently porsche needs to have the vaccum adjustment in the valve but we dont. Its only on the vw part as it fits all the vag engines but the vaccum adjust is of no earthly use so there advice is ALWAYS buy the 007P and save your money

Was bugging me that  :grin:
