well it really depends. what is the spring rate of the spring you have? a 4 pound spring was pretty easy to push up on bbandit's tial wastegate, but mine is kind of hard to push up on the valve with a 6 psi spring, but i also have a different wastegate.

i don't know the difference between the spool up of your t3/t4 compared to an ihi turbo, there are alot of factors that play a roll. do you know the specs of the two turbochargers?
