I can't say for sure at what point springs are needed but I would think if you are running close to 50 lbs boost or hitting close to 3200 rpms your valves may be comming close to kissing your pistons. After market valve springs are a insurance against a potentially fatal mishap to your motor. The stock ones are weak when new and after a few K miles they are only weaker. After market springs are a lot nicer and even fit better.

12valve, Billy Ram explained it perfectly.

Its not like your gona gain a lot, its just insureance, and it could make your motor breath a lil better if your springs are in bad shape.

Yeah, definately, anyway I could have it first? Or at least by the weekend?

If non of yall need it RIGHT now, I can just buy it and we can settle up later, but I dont know how big of a hurry you are in.

I am about to go put a few more studs in my truck, but if you want just call me later.

No problem, I will just order one tonight and once Im done just put it back up for sale, I dont see me needing it more than once and any money I can recoupe right now would be a good thing.

Thanks though
