interesting, I'll swap to the other one and see. I am seeing boosts over 20psi when I lay into it as it is. At that point, I can't keep watching the gauge to see how far it goes.

Nice find. Forge was $15 for shipping as a reference.

Just got mine yesterday but haven't really looked at it yet. The spring laying in the box was golden in color but I'm sure that is the "yellow" one.
so it doesnt come with the green spring? My ss is stock. No more than 15psi so does that,mean I have to buy that spring kit as well to get the green one?

The green one comes in it, your cool, and if you do stg1 the yellow one is just right.

I sent G. Saab a email to see if they can supply the spring kit with the valve so I only pay shipping once, Pipe dream right ??

Sweet well you never know maybe they can hook it up for you. Oh and I finally checked under the good and yes you guys are right. Looks like it will be a easy install 3 bolts and a hose clamp. Easy!

To make install even easier, remove the lag bolts for the plastic covering from windshield to engine bay..4 of them.....this allows more of your arm to get down there and make sure you don't drop a bolt, etc.
