I believe you can use a large spring and a small spring together added up to give you the large amount of boost you want.

I just purchased a 10lb spring for mine, my AVC-R is running my 4.35 at 80% duty cycle

I've shopped with http://www.lightningmotorsports.com/tialsport.htm many times, springs are $30.

A decent boost controller can add plenty of boost to a 10psi spring...the ~4.35psi spring is just so soft that the exhaust pressure forces it open. Not so easy with the stiffer spring, so it's easier for the boost controller to "keep it up"...hehe.

I'll bet *any* boost controller can do at least 20psi on a 10psi spring...

I ran 28psi on a 10lb spring with my TurboXS dual stage BC. Having the ability to run low boost is a must if you want longevity. Course, I guess I did keep it on high boost most of the time...I'm a wicked boost addict though.

Not to thread-jack, but to the original poster what kind of fuel management are you using @ 24psi?

Holy ****. That thing sounds like a monster. I'd have to sell a few internal organs to get a setup like that.

Nice ride!

Edit: Skatanic, you schooled me twice tonight on two different forums. You clever bastard!
