Valvesprings are an easy swap. Sounds like it’d be fun for a while. ---

FYI ppl have used the stock single springs for boosted setups that are in mild ranges of the 8-12 psi. It seems the higher volume of boost from larger turbos along with higher rpms are really what causes the valve float. 918s will work as long as you got the new and improved ones. Running the Ls6 cam and those springs are plenty since the Ls6 cam in boost hits a wall around 5500 rpms and drastically drops in power at that point. ---
