Fitted this today and now the car won't idle this is a normal issue with a vta bov ? It comes with 2 springs I,ll try the stiffer one before I sack it off?

I'd try the stronger spring. Theoretically the BOV should be sealed when sat idling, so the fact it is a VTA should not matter. The car would only stall if the fuelling went wrong, which would imply a leak.

It does mention in the documentation that the stiffer spring should be used depending on the vac at idle I,ll try all of the above cheers all

In John's link above, our cars are at the high vacuum end of the scale, so I'd assume that you would need the stronger spring. In my experience vr4s run a vacuum of around 19inhg.

Yes, I had to change one of my previous bovs springs to a stronger one but that was before I discovered that the cheap Amber Performance ones did all we need impeccably and made a lovely noise.

Sorted I put the stronger spring in and now it works well, I've picked up 0.2 bar as well so the old one must have been leaking, doesn't sound as I had though but oh well
