Default valve spring

i beleive that one of my valve spring is no good anymore cuz i hear this dump dump sound from my engine. i was wondering if there was any performance valve springs or just stock or itr springs. also how much should the spring be worth?

i would do a compression test and leakdown test if you are hearing that noise..... itr springs arent too expensive. i would be a little worried hearing that noise...

I am not sure how you immediately derive valvespring from a dump dump noise - you should take a sound clip from you car so we can hear it...dump dump doesnt help lol.

I would do a Comp test as Slain mentioned though for sure.
