Diverter valve installed - did I loss acceleration?

RE: Diverter valve installed - did I loss acceleration?
Which model of DV (we make over 140 different valves), what colour spring, how much boost, was it new or used, if used when was the last service performed?
Here is a break down of the springs and the suggested boost ranges:
Green 5-15
Yellow 15-23
Blue 23-30
Red 30+
If you are using the correct springs there are several other things to check, first check the connections on the car. Make sure all of the clamps are tight and that there are no tears in the hoses. After that check the valve itself, here are guides for two of the more popular valves:

If it turns out to be a diaphragm valve check for tears or punctures in the diaphragm.
