Rex has ran these motors for a long time an knows much about them. Maybe you are mistaking PINCH for compression. compressions deals with shim hight with the head button. so you can take your tighly pinched motor and increase the compression by removing the nessisary shims. these motors do have alot of pinch but these compression is about average with the rest.

Go motors generally come with 3 shims installed on the head button, 2 x alloy and 1 x copper. Pull 1 of the alloy (silver) shims after you have broken it in fully ie after a couple of gallons and run the 0801 Pipe (any brand 0801, Go, PR, Aplus etc all come from the same place) and the Go's go like crazy! Also, may need to go to a colder plug, I was typically running P4's, had to go to P5's or P6's after as P4's wouldn't hold together after pulling the shim.

The GO motors come with 3 x shims. 1 x .3mm alloy shim and 2 x .1mm copper shims.
After the first gallon or so, remove one of the thin .1mm copper shims (not the alloy one). This will give you a little more power and slightly improved run times.

Hi Mauve. Just a slight correction to your post.

That's right the break in shim is extra over the 3 fitted as standard.personally I'd wait till the 2 gallon mark to remove the shim ..I remove mine as I change the break in rod ..do note the xtra compression gives a little more power and tank time but will require finer tuning to find the sweet spot..
