My Tial 50mm bov came with a -7psi spring (black) and I traded it for the -11psi (unpainted) spring. This solved my compressor surge I had at light boost blow off with the black spring.

Re: Tial bov spring help

One needs to check their vacuum to determine what size spring is needed.

For most hondas -11psi spring is to be used.. (Yes, even if you're running under 10psi of actual boost pressure.. its not based upon the amount of boost pressure you're going to run.)
