Joe-
Contact AWE and have them replace the valve for free-
they're lifetime warranted and shouldn't fail like you
described.
I've had mine in for about as long and no problems at all.
Or sell me the Bailey for cheap. :-)

Taka and all other S-car brethren-
Installed my bailey actually About November, so that's
7 months. It was working fine at first, but slowly deteriorating. I
got all the telltale signs of
failure: Lag between shifts, loss of low end power,
less noise, sound/feel of motor running SLIGHTLY rich.
So I recently pulled it out and replaced it with the
710N and it's been a beautiful thing. Great low end
response, but I'm currently looking for something
designed to hold as much boost as I'm running right
now with a Stage III+ IA, Jeff's 3" exhaust and all
kinds of cool red hoses. I've toasted a stock bosch
valve, a forge, a bailey and was unhappy with the
TurboXS. I have yet to take apart the bailey, but
just from playing with it, the piston WOULD NOT BUDGE
AT ALL! No play. I just hope the impeller
wheel/shaft makes it to when I go to the bigger
hairdryer as opposed to this K24 pea shooter.
