You might have more luck if you said what kind of BOV it was, where it is mounted in relation to the rest of the system, etc. Also double check that measurement. It makes a difference.

You running a Tial 50mm? You can order a stronger spring for it from them. There was a thread not too long ago also dealing with this and discussing the different springs.
Heres a thread somewhat related. You may want to keep the spring you have. It won't hurt anything.
