Not sure if this is peak / sustained or what but this is what forge recommend.
Green - 5-15 PSI
Yellow - 15-23 PSI
Blue - 23-30 PSI
Red - 30 + PSI
Black - 100 + PSI
OK I made the last one up....

the boost forces the dv open..too stiff and it wont open..too weak and it opens early...decide for yourself i guess
too stiff a spring like blue and the DV wont open properly...
you need a DV which has enough spring pressure to seal, but is as easy to open (fast) as possible.
I have tested a gree spring for leak to 22psi when I heard the faintest of hisssss, like you would never feel in real driving terms.

not necessarily, ive been running a yellow spring for a year and a half remapped and non remapped, makes bugger all difference to a green really so not worth the effort to change.
I've run both the Yellow and Green on my REVO Audi A3 1.8T (150bhp Stock so comparable to a Beeza). Couldn't tell the differance between them on the road but had the Green one in for my RR run and it made 192bhp/218lb_ft and didn't appear to be bleeding boost in the slightest. So no need for the yellow one IMO.
me too
although after reading post 4 i might change mine to be safe to the yellow spring

If bill can run 480bhp on a green spring I think most other forum users will be OK with yellow, I only used yellow in my LCR (270bhp) and that was fine too.
