Leave in what you have, if it leaks put in a stiffer spring. If it doesn't release fast enough, put in a softer spring.


ORIGINAL: patty AT forge

The springs are rated as follows:

green - 5-15
yellow - 15-23
blue - 23-30
red - 30+

The shims can be used to further fine tune the valve.

Yes, you switched the inlet and outlet so it will have a different sound.

Some DV's can be reversed and they hold boost better.

Flip it around and see what the Butt-Dyno thinks about it.
