Default 7 psi w/ .65 bar spring

I have a 35 mm tail wg on my drag manifold. I have the .65 bar spring but it seems to open about 7psi and slowly climb up to about 9psi. Is that common?
I heard of several people complaining about boost spike with the drag manifold, but i'm having a hard time getting to the .65 bar that the spring is rated for.
I don't mind it because i'd rather have it do this then spike up to 10-11psi. I was just curious. It's always done this but now that i have my car runing perfect (thanks to a fellow HT memeber) i have nothing to do but nit pick .....I've been waiting a while to say this but i'm finally done with the car until either something breaks or i win the lotto

do you have a boost controller? It will keep the wg closed till the desired setting.
