Welcome to DTR! Any of the vendors here can get ahold of the 60psi springs. When adding an exhaust brake, only the exhaust side needs to be upgraded. You need to do both sides--valve float does not descriminate

edit--you'll smoke more down low because the turbo will tend to lag a bit more with advanced timing.
