Yeah it may open too much.

You should have an adjuster screw, can tighten the spring.

should sound quite loud when you are out and come off boost.

Take a pic of how you fitted it, then we might be able to help more.

Sounds like it was fitted wrong mate? Is it dumping any air? You should be able to simply rev it in neutral.

Hold your hand over it while you rev it.

You prolly already know but Rember you cant build proper boost untill you have load on the car, so you cant make it sound very easily whilst it not moving on your drive.

Squirt a little WD40 into it, lubricates it when new before the oil particles in the air lubricate after some use.

Don\'t tighten it too much, then go out for a burn with your window open, you\'ll know if it\'s working OK, mine makes a definitive Pishshshshttttt noise.

Should be loud yeah, i have a Baileys D/V on mine and is very loud.
 
You should be able to hear it dumping even if you blip the throttle in neutral (obv after the engine has warmed up to be safe) :)
