Im having the same issue it seems like. My truck made almost 500hp at 5krpms then flat lines. I was told valve float was probally the problem with the prc 650s I was running. I bought some comp 675s and the truck feels exactly the same but it hasnt been on the dyno to varify..

Yeah yours to me seems better than mine. My power drops literally straight off around 5800. And it's very unstable looking to me all the way up, like it's not very smooth

Yea thos .650 springs arent the problem bc they are working like a charm for me.

I would got with dual springs for the added security from dropping a valve if a spring were to break.

I would like more info on your new tuner if you could pm me or something. I am in the springfield area. I added a turbo and will need some fine tuning.
Hope you are getting there. Also sounds like I better start saving for better springs.
Thanks
Dave
