Forge BPV Help

I want to get one but have a ton of questions, should I run the green spring if im on stock boost? do I need a tune? and by the looks of it, its pretty easy to install right?

The Forge valve is easy to install, and after installing it, along with a lot bigger air filter, I was impressed that the boost came on quicker, and holded better. Throttle response was quicker.
Not sure how much the big filter played in the equation, but the vale is definately worth it. I'm tuned, so I'm running yellow spring. Got Forge valve at ModernAuto, with angled fitting, and fitting works just fine. Just remember that the flat section of the valve goes down, to line up the ports. "Moon"

Ok thanks moon, that helped out alot. The angled fitting wont mess anything up? since I noticed the original end goes straight out.
