The Super has a lot smaller case head area and it takes a bunch more psi to give equal forces on the slide. It’s good that you can tune it to the specific platform. Wolff sells a tune pack. I’m running a 18# in my 10mm with a non-bevel firing pin stop plate and heavier mainspring. I think over-springing causes more problems than fixes.
It’s good to take note of brass dents, firing pin smears (weak firing pin spring) and ejection patterns. You don’t want the frame battered, but consistency in timing is good too. All beyond basic reliability.
