I've been told to use a 6.5" spring with helper or an 8" without helper.

Sound right?

Please read my posts related to that (or this sales post) http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1406175

You can go much higher on spring rates and shorter and then use a spacer. You can order everything from KW in the US and they have an Excel spread sheet with Nmm and length [mm].
