Wondering if anyone knows what the different spring numbers mean that are available from ATR I'm have some boost control problems and I think I may need a firmer spring. Any insight would be greatly appriciated.

:beerglass I think they stand for pressure i.e. 5=5 pounds, etc. If you were just to use the gate without any connections it would release around the rated pressure but it is adjustable via the set screw, but hey I could be wrong. PS:That would take 5 pounds of exhaust back pressure to open!!! :SHOCKED: however with a hose from boost to the side that would push the valve open it would take approx. 5 pounds, if the same boost hose was just hook to the other side it would never open. :thrashi: :thrashi: :thrashi: :thrashi: :thrashi:

I have a Racegate but same principal. What color is your spring? Are you using it with a boost valve? That is the way to go and suggested by most vendors.
