A couple extra psi at that level might help, or with the monza prob won't take over 12psi anyway. A turbo smart adjustable set to 7psi would be ok, but not Required**I am not a tuner, so double check with your chosen tuner what they recommend.

That's sounds like a fair price? I would do it myself but without having a tool I think it would be quite hard but I wast factoring these into my budget as I was under the impression that the stock ones would be fine for the power I'm chasing. Anyone else had problems with the springs at this power? Ultimately though the tuner is quite reputable so they know what they are talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bf2 valve springs wouldn't go Over 320 on 98, my last bf2 they made it to 355. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they much better then the monza? I think I might have a go at doing the valve springs myself, can't be much harder then some of the other stuff I have to do at work.

Not sure what to do with the growler intake though, might sell it and get an under battery intake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
