I dont mean to hi-jack, but has anyone else experiencing slower turbo spooling after the blue spring upgrade like I am?

Whats up with the bb mod?

Does it really work?

I called the ford dealer ship today. He said it would cost me 80$ and he wasn't sure if it was the blue spring or not.

that bb is from your kids re ryder bb gun some do go with a hardened bearing
it just throws the spring a bit further

I just didnt like the fact it could get lost easy during assembly or disassembly

i went with the 80.00nkit
but they did have just the spring high volume ford dealer

I will try to contact him.

But just temporary would the bb work?

Where does it go? Front or the back of the spring?

bb goes in the cover once you open the cover you will see where the spring seats on outer cover put bb there then spring
it just makes the spring push harder on the plunger thats opens the return line
once you get cover off you will see
I just did this to prevent premature injector failure with the stock deadend fuel rail it fires multiple injectors on the same side one after the other leaving fuel press low

To clarify, I should have only put the base number 9T517. I agree with you about them constantly changing part numbers and that is why I refer to the base number when I talk to Tousley or Ed about parts. I will plug in the entire number into their online searches though to see what it pulls up. It really does help to have the entire updated number though.

I also called a local dealer parts store in my area and asked about the 9C165 kit and weather or not it contained the spring. They pulled it off the shelf and said it did not have a spring and that it was just an o-ring kit (see fordparts.com for exploded diagram). I asked them if they had any other kits or numbers for just the spring and they said 9T517 is the only one they have.

1854267C94 and 1843065C98 are two International part #s that I see posted. I am not sure one or the other, but some guys are recently posting that the item is "restricted".

I may try these numbers this week with my local Int. parts guy and see what happens. I may just end up with my BB for the long haul.

The bb mod worked when I did it, then a few months later I got the updated spring.

Just a warning using the BB Mod. You need to have a fuel pressure gauge when doing this mod. Some have reported their fuel pressure went too high doing this. For what ever reason.

There have been numerous reports that the BB mod works well, and is pretty darn cheap.

Just be careful.
