from what i've been told the highes you can go on a spring is double the amount of boost the spring is made for. EX. 7 PSI spring is good only to 14 PSI

yeah, it will fit. I plan on swapping in a .7bar spring in my tial soon. I only need one boost level so it is pointless to spend $$$ on a boost controller
