1 more time- YOUR SPRINGS ARE NOT THE PROBLEM! VALVE FLOAT DOES NOT HAPPEN AT 4200rpm AND ONLY 8 PSI, the post above is a car with double the boost. And your springs are not "entry level springs", up until 1 year ago they were all that was available and we made 800+ RWHP on many turbo cars making 30+ psi, here is one:
Now if you still want to blame those "entry level comp springs" as you call it go ahead, we are trying to help but we can only tell you so many times.
 Can you post a pic of the engine bay of that car? ps# MMR check your pm box |

I had endura tech valve springs that had 112lbs of seat pressure in 05. Crower had springs with 100lbs on the seat at that time also.

i see comp has the beehive which are at 93 seat
and they also have some at 120 seat
will the higher seat pressure put more wear/stress on the stainless valves? trying to learn all i can about this car, thanks for the help.

wes ratcliff going talk to the trans builder to see what he thinks about the trans being the problem since it's the only thing that changed since this latest problem has started. was pulling like a freight train before the trans broke, had it rebuilt and now it's dragging down under load. went thru all other options other than new tune and everything checked out. |

well, the transmission lost 3rd gear once again tonight. tried to roll into some low bost and it lost 3rd completely. 1st and 2nd were pulling like a freak though, so the trans goes back to the specialist monday morning under warranty for the fix. hopefully back on the dyno next weekend.

tuned it today. got to 13 psi and valves started floating some at 5800, tried 14 psi and it was breaking up real bad, so i backed it down to 12 and called it a day. no float and car feels good for 12 pounds for sure! lol gonna get some springs in a few months and up the boost once this feels slow. made 485/460 on a mustang dyno with weather correction without lockup on. sucka makes power the entire time to 6500 too! we were picking up 42 hp per pound of boost once we started upping it 1 at a time. very nice gains in my eyes for a non lockup auto behind this thing! |

DUDE YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT MMR HAS RAN THOSE SAME SPRINGS UP TO 30PSI AND 8 SECOND TIMES... THERE IS NO WAY YOU ARE FLOATING THEM AT YOUR POWER AND BOOST LEVEL.. I was being sarcastic incase anyone couldnt tell... 2v have valve spring issues very early on.... |

that car doesn't have comp springs in it, owner verified that. no use arguing, i know i need springs. wish they would have been rite, but oh well. it'll be fun for now, just have to wait till beast mode happens unfortunately... |
