 I can tell you with relative certainty that after three years the Forge valve
 piston is hanging up in it's bore. If the car stumbles between shifts under
 load the piston is hanging up.

 The lube gets dirty and causes the excess friction

Would have to agree with Richard. I've had mine apart twice now. I also
polished the piston inside to a mirror finish. I would consider the cleaning
and lubing regular maintainence on these valves. Mine was very gummed up the
last time. Works much better than a Bosch when it's all lubed up though.
Makes a nice pshh when you let off the gas.
