Thread: BC vs. Supertech valve springs and retainers

I'm running the 100# ones.

If I remember correctly the BC are actually renamed supertech valves arnt they?

I've had my BCs for years and they've seen 9.8k for multiple multiple passes.

If they are then smack me sideways because the website lists PAC Racing as the maker of their springs in the first sentence. BrianCrower.com | RunBC.com // Nissan // SR20DET

I could be wrong, I just thought I remember that being the case

I have been trying to decide which to get for my ve.

It seems that no one has had an issue on the VE with either brand, so I may just make my decision based on price alone.

Both options are good. I would avoid the 130# supertechs. I personally don't have the experience but have heard they are known for premature rocker and cam wear. I believe the 100# springs are the ones you want.

I suggest Supertech's # H1022D. For me combined with the N1's and other bolt ons they have made good power; made peak HP at just about 8000RPM on the dynojet. I can't say anything negative about BC's but I can tell you first hand experience that the Super's have worked out very well for me at the track and also regular driving. I generally redline the motor at least once per drive to keep it nice and healthy up top.

Edit: found a link to them: http://www.frsport.com/Supertech-SPRK-H1022D-SR20-Dual-Valve-Springs-Kit-SR20DET-230-lbs_p_15738.html

I have that set just haven't installed them

The springs and retainers arrived this week. I bought them on Ebay for under 300$ shipped, and they were drop-shipped directly from Supertech.
