yeah put a 8 psi spring in it - when the boost level gets to 8 psi the spring/valve will bleed it off

if you take it apart and pull the spring out the spring should have some color painted on it - find out what color it is and call turbonetics and they will tell you what spring psi is in there

Yes they are adjustable on the top. I was running 7 then I just a 9/16 wrench and allen head to adjust. I was turning it done without knowing. I was running 5lbs. It didnt pull as much as 7 but was better than no boost
