So fo a stock turbo, what spring should be used? Blue or yellow?Well I thought I'd update this thread. I received my Forge BOV, the unit looks great and the quality seems very good as well. I've attached a few pics of the unit, it has a completely different designed compared to the 1g and has no problem holding 20 psi without any leaks. The unit came with 4 springs & shims to adjust it for your desired boost level. Compared to the 1g it sounds louder and has more of a pssst sound whereas the 1g is more of a woosh. I had issues with it not releasing properly above ~10 psi, seems to release in three bursts instead of the normal 1. I wasn't able to solve the problem but it was only on the car a couple days before I had to put it into storage. Im pretty sure its something simple like haveing to relube the piston but I won't know for sure until the spring.

This thread is super old, however the spring rates are based on vacuum. I had a yellow spring in my Forge BOV and it was too soft so I went to Blue and have no complaints. This is for a 2g with a T25So fo a stock turbo, what spring should be used? Blue or yellow?
