Is it even opening?

My friend had one and was running 10 PSI, it wouldn't even open below 15 PSI after we got hard surge.

Nismo Freak basically said what I was thinking...

That valve is for serious boosting/high boost (we'll say one bar+) only.

Reliable as far as I've experienced, however it's only with one car.

Leaking is something this valve will never do.

It's sprung pretty heavily.

Unless you are going to be running 20+ lbs. of boost I don't suggest this valve.
