Hey guys, i am getting my car ready for the dyno on friday, and i am currently using a small blue spring (.6 bar). I ordered another spring that was going to put me at 18 psi, and then i was going to turn it up to 23 with my manual boost controller. Well the guy sent me the wrong spring (another small blue) and i won't be able to get another one before the dyno day.

I know people say you can usually only go 2X the wastegate spring, but some people are able to do more.

Also, i know this sounds ghetto, but would i be able to stretch one spring out and use that one? would that acheive higher boost?

 

Good question. I like to know also.

 

I believe you can run both springs which would give you 1.2 bar (Tial's site claims that you can use 2 springs and it will equal the 2 spring pressures added up). That should be able to take you above 23 psi.

 

you need a big and small spring. what MBC do you have? my friend brought it up to 18 lbs on a 8lb spring using a greddy profec spec II ebc

it doesn't work like that for 2 small springs. that is only for a small plus a large.

****, well learn something new everyday. Wonder why it won't work for 2 small?

 

It will be a ball and spring type MBC......is there any other ghetto ways to make this work? any thoughts on stretching the spring? or am i just retarded?

 

why cant you get another spring?

they do offer overnight shipping you know

Do you sell them? could you get me one to south dakota before friday?

 

because you end up stacking them together and so the solid height (fully compressed) of the springs double. The valve can't lift very high and you get mad boost creep.
