I want to go to a heavier gauge string set. Do I need to add a spring to the tremolo?

Answer

You should not have to add an additional spring. You will need to adjust the springs, truss rod, and intonation when changing string gauges.

There is detailed information on setting up your instrument elsewhere in the FAQ section.
