If you're already running a full size pack, then don't add weight. Actually, I can't come close to the forward bite that Alex has (even when I've tried his setup). His car is glued to the track, and wheelies where my B4 and RB6 start to get loose.
Springs are as close as I could get to the previous springs using Avids, the ones I was using before were:

Front: Brown 2.80lbs
Rear: Green 1.90lbs

I'm running the Reedy 4100 shorty packs, I'll try moving the battery back a bit and see of that helps. Then I'll try the 1.7 pistons like you suggested.

Thanks!
