Take a grinder to the fuel pin, and isnt free but 3200 spring is a good mod. Also a timing bump would help

If you do grind the fuel pin make sure you do it on the deep side not the "stock" shallow side. It gives you more power than the shallow side plus then you can turn it back to stock for any reason you need. Careful grinding it down low on the pin though I ground to low on mine and smoke way to much at low boost for my taste if I'm not careful with my foot.

Grind the ramp steaper on the fuel pin, and advance the timing. which is free.

A gov spring is only 25 bucks darn near free and makes the biggest difference.

Lightly grind on the foot of the afc lever after your grind your fuel pin. This is under the AFC Cover when you do the GSK Spring. This will allow more movement of that linkage since the stock fuel pin can only be ground so far. There is more room for movement.

If you are bottomed out on your fuel screw with no run away, then weld a bead on the end to make it longer.
