Forge type RS problem

i put in a forge rs dv on my evo 9 today with the heavy spring it comes with. Until i ran out of clicks on it it wouldnt hold my 25lbs of boost. Now if i take a turn at say 10lbs of boost it starts to dump it. Even at WOT at 25lbs i can hear it trying to sneak its way through the dv and then itll just dump it. Is there something im missing or should i just return it?

you might have a different one, mine isnt adjustable, just springs are interchangable. What boost doesnt it hold? I need to test mine first before I get retuned but max I run is 28. Im using the green spring it comes with and it doesnt stutter as of now

i have a forge type rs recirc and a fmevo15 forge recirc. The type rs will dump boost if you hold it at 10-20lbs too long idk why

If it's leaking, it's broken.
