If you're just looking to have fun, easy things first. 1. Forget the octane booster, anything above 90 gas is just blown out the exhaust pipe. 2. Straight pipe, no muffler. reduce backpressure as much as possible. 3. Open up the gorvernor.

Check the strings on the pulling discusion board. Some of them are good.
