So I know I'm color blind but its not like i see black and white. I also had my girlfriend look at these and she couldent really make heads or tails of them either. So according to tial I need a copper/brown spring(s) to run 11.60 PSI. These were the springs that were included in with the valve. The valve was bought new. Someone tell me what springs I need because i see black, white, red, blue, yellow, green. NONE of those colors are listed on the sheet. Thanks

All the springs I've gotten I could barely tell the color of them. Those are painted amazingly!!!....maybe that's the reason I've had 3 wastegate spring failures in under 1500 miles and 1 rebuild from TiAL ( in wich my "rebuilt gate" was sent
back to me with a new diaphragm and the OLD COLLAPSED springs put back in it) at least they sent extra springs in the box, too bad I couldn't tell the color of the springs except maroon LOL
 
Your springs are actually painted very well. Here is a picture of one of my MVS gates taken apart with all the springs around it.

This is the list i used for selecting my springs for the proper psi rate. Everything matched up for me using it.

It would probably be safe to assume that they sent you the wrong springs. Are you sure the vendor sent you the correct WG?
 
I agree they are painted well, Im just saying the colors dont match to the sheet. That's the exact same sheet that came in my box. The gate came with my o2 housing I bought new from punishment. Its the correct gate they sent me the box it came in. Maybe I will contact them and see what they have to say.
 
Tial recently changed over the spring coloring and it looks like we shipped you the old chart with the new springs. Sorry about that.

Here is the new chart:
