Default Which valve spring for Skunk2 cams revving to 9k?

I tried posting this in the ITR forum and got a different answer from every poster As you all know, the Skunks have long duration with a bit more lift than CTR/ITR cams. Thus, I want a valve spring that's stiff enough to handle 9000 rpms, but not so stiff as to lose any power. Any suggestions?

Crower makes an amazing dual valve spring. Initially it is *VERY* stiff but as it breaks in it will become more pliable http://www.crower.com

The only concern I have is that too stiff a spring may be counterproductive to power made by these cams, since they don't have big lift to compensate. I've been considering the Web Cam (non turbo), Portflow inners w/ ITR outers, and Skunk2's (can rev to 10.5k)
