GROUP BUY: Forge RS BOV

Got the valve ON friday and install it on Sat. SO far I like this bov a lot. No stalling and holding 21 psi fine. It makes a whistle rather then a whoosh sound which I hope is normal.
The only thing I did not like is it's leaking between the flange and bov. I knew there was going to be some issues so I boost leak check after the install and it was leaking. I tried using teflon tape with no success. I end up using gasket maker to seal the entire area but that made a mess on the bov, looks wise that is. Other then this issue the bov is great.
Anyone else have the leak issue? If anyone feels like they lost power after installing this bov I recommend that you check the flange and bov connection.

I asked Mike about this and he said, the next order we make, to mention that we were on the Group Buy and he would do the discount, no code, just a list on his side.

Cant get mine to stop fluttering. Anyone else having this issue? You have to either be or full throtle. Partial throtle = shake your fillings out. I have tried it at every spring tension 
I love the fact that it holds boost and looks great, it just doenst drive so well.
