We find that if one intends to apply an EOS-independent quadratic, universal transformation formula ($M_b=M_g+A\\times M_{g}^2$) to all EOSs, the best fit $A$ value is 0.080 for non-rotating NSs only and 0.073 when different spin periods are considered. The residual error of the transformation is as large as $\\sim0.1M_{\\odot}$. For different EOSs, we find that the parameter $A$ for non-rotating NSs is proportional to $R_{1.4}^{-1}$ (where $R_{1.4}$ is NS radius for 1.4$M_\\odot$ in unit of km). For a particular EOS, if one adopts the best-fit parameters for different spin periods, the residual error of the transformation is smaller, which is of the order of 0.01$M_\\odot$ for the quadratic form and less than 0.01$M_\\odot$ for the cubic form ($M_b=M_g+A_1\\times M_{g}^2+A_2\\times M_{g}^3$). We also find a very tight and general correlation between the normalized mass gain due to spin $\\Delta m\\equiv(M_{\\rm max}-M_{\\rm TOV})/M_{\\rm TOV}$ and the spin period normalized to the Keplerian period ${\\cal P}$, i.e. ${\\rm log_{10}}\\Delta m = (-2.74\\pm0.05){\\rm log_{10}}{\\cal P}+{\\rm log_{10}}(0.20\\pm 0.01)$, which is independent of EOS models.
