the 0.5 bar spring which is approx 7.25lbs yielded 270hp with no water spraying. With water spraying it was like 263hp.Have u done a dyno run like before or after? Does the the 6lb -8lbs get you 265 -280 range I'm really just looking for a little edge not a pure racebike that hp range sounds sweet. Been dreaming of a turbo since I got the bike.if you get it tuned right it should survive just fine at 7 lbs with stock compression if you're not doing many top end runs. I've been running 7lbs with water inj and stock compression for 4 yrs and haven't had a hiccup yet. Tuned by motorhead. If I ever plan to do top end runs I will put c-16 in it.
