Fit it in reverse mate as that will then be the correct way
They are originally fitted in reverse to make them quite

When I spoke to Forge at the motorshow they siad its far better to fit it opposite to the bosch as the boost then acts ont he face on the diaphram rather than the side of it whicg causes it to fail
