Do Toda valvesprings w/ spec bs make a noisier valve train? I was listening over my valvecover while blipping the throttle and noticed a hell of alot more noise than the stock valvetrain. Is it normal?
Robert, who is wondering if something has let go under the valvecover

well have you adjusted your valves yet?
there is more lift on your cams and the parts are moving faster and more distance than before.
it wont sound stock

i have the aftermarket valve springs, valves, and retainers and a mugen head gasket and my car makes mad noise. I don't know if thats normal but my check engine popped up and it was CEL 45. I cleaned up my injectors but its clicking. Its weird. Very loud. I don't know if its a valve adjustment problem but the last time i adjusted them, they made a very small difference. How often are you guys adjusting valves with aftermarket valve springs?

i adjusted my valves probably 12k miles ago. I am pretty sure everything is in spec. I guess the stiffer valvesprings make the valves noisier when they open and close.
