on my BSR remap the yellow spring didn't hold the boost when it peaked. Could see it on my boost gauge it was fluctuating. With the blue one it was nice and smooth. My car is peaking about 23psi... ish.

let me also add: the blue spring opens as early as 5psi. So its defo not to stiff :)

I finally got my forge 007 fitted today, and after taking the car out on a drive its like driving a different car, no longer get that chavy whoos sound everytime i change gear. The car know longer hesitates either, power delievely is ahell of alot smoother, and all the fault codes have disappeared from the ECU. So role on the new year when i wil be getting the car remapped by either Revo or Custom Code:)

i think the issues with some turbos tend to be back pressure from a stiff dv. maybe wrong but pretty sure it puts strain on the spindle causing side to side movment. this may only relate to ihi tubbys.

Which DV did you have on before?
I've got the SPLT R valve, been on for 3 months now and no probs at all.
