I am running a duo 2 17.5. With the MMP I would stay in the 6.6-6.25 range. I am currently running 35 degrees with 5 -15 k rpm. I would try lowering your timing. If you are loosing too much top end, then I would adjust your rpm range. Try increasing your starting rpm. If your track is pretty flowing where you are wound out most of the time, then adjusting your RPM range might make a big difference. But the first thing I would try is lowering the timing.
