Ive had my tial Q on for about 2 weeks and its awesome. I have a 6lb spring cause im too cheap to buy the 3lb, and there is no problems with it. I run about 12-13inHg at idle and it is a good halfway open. God damn, this thing is loud as hell, my GF hates it. BUT, no more pipes blowing off, very quick release on the shifts as well

straight otta' China, the comapny says they are the latest and greatest... fact is, generally they fall apart and leak

BTW thanks for helping clear all this up.
Edit: After rereading your post and checking your site again it must begin to open @ 6" hg. Which is what mine does. So now I'm pretty sure I have the -3 spring. I wish you would paint it a different color. LOL

Just open it up and have a peek. That's the first thing I did when I got mine. Just be careful not to pinch the diaphram when you reassemble it. The area of the diaphram is larger than the piston. To me that says with spring assist + boost pressure in the (vacuum port side )intake side of the diaphram it cannot open under boost. The pressure holding the piston closed will always be greater than the pressure from the supercharger feeding the engine.
