You might also try going to a 7mm restrictor. You would think that the bigger restrictor would cost fuel mileage but I actually picked up some mileage going to a 7mm over the 6mm. 6mm seams to choke the engine alot so your in the throttle more. I also know that the jp4 over the pipe in the promo kit seams to help bottom end and also improve run time alittle.
