Default Where to get uprated springs for zetec turbo

Hej all,

Now i've decided to go for single uprated valve springs in my 2.0 zetec turbo i'm searching where to get them.
Found a few but they won't send it to holland

Looking for piper uprated springs or comparable..

Who knows somewhere to get them who wants to send them to holland....

Thanks

Yes i did , and he can send a set single springs to me.

I also mailed to newman and he's got a set of double valves wich shouldn't be to expensive.

Not sure what i should do...

The Piper single uprated springs are repeatedly proven at 300bhp. I've not seen the Newman ones in action.

Hej Pa sjo , newmans are double so should do the job shouldn't they?
Heard nothing but good about them but i got a quote from ian @ area six wich sound good..

Waiting for reply from david @ newmans and then we'll see...
Just a little weird that doubles seem to come out cheaper then singles.....

I don't rely on 'should do'...... I go by what is tested and what works.

You're right there but i haven't seen any zetec turbo work or know what's tested and what not.
Not many over here do zetec turbo's or realy tune their rs turbo's either.

Just noticed a lot of people over here like newman produkts and double spring are the way to go for real power so i'm told so should be ok for 300 bhp.

Waiting for an email from newman, wonder what they say.
