Popping off T-clamps/Tial BOV?

Bottom Line up Front: I think my BOV spring is too stiff;
I'm popping off t-bolt clamps.

So, I switched from stock UICP to Buschur w/ Tial BOV VTA combo.

The first spring I had was the white spring (8lb) wasnt stiff enough, would stay open at idle.

I switched to the yellow/pink spring (12lb) based on recommendations from the trusted shop I always go to.

But, I had a feeling it was too much of a jump, and now whenever I attempt to boost I'm popping off t-bolts.

The plain (10lb) spring is what I'm thinking as the solution.
Thoughts?

So you're blowing off T-bolt clamps when you go from vacuum to boost, or from boost to vacuum?

should be boost to vacuum. Because I dont have a chance to switch gears to go from vacuum to boost.

Run the 10# spring then, as well as make sure you're T-bolt clamps are secure. They shouldn't be popping off like that regardless.
