mcmaster,
You have e-mail.

To run my spring-mod I have a flat bracket I attached to the back of my engine block. There are a couple of threaded holes below the head that are not used...at least they are not used on a 5-spd. (use metric bolts to attach. The spring I used is a universal carb-return spring from NAPA...they run around $8.00
You can also order one from Jegs, it's a Mr. Gasket part #720-19

To attach the spring to the waste-gate arm you will need to put a very small wire hose-clamp on the arm to keep the spring from sliding up the arm. I only attach the spring when I run at a race-track because I read in the SRT4 forums that the computer will compensate for the spring over a period of time thereby netting you back to S1 HP. The spring-trick nets me two-tenths faster ET at the race track. Takes me about two mintutes to install/remove.
