When I said different pilot size and needle, I meant put both in, not just one. If you richen the needle clip position it will probably get better. However, I think you need a richer needle. If the bog is hesitant an you cant gain any rpm, then its lean. If its not gaining rpm and its gurgling then its rich. Just by looking at what you had it looked too rich on the pilot and too lean on the needle. Whether your running a stock airbox or not, then there is no way it needs more pilot. We jet Patriot racing dune port 4 mills with pro circuits at a 42 pilot jet. The 4 mill will take a dek or eek needle, but 4 mills tend to be more fuel efficient than stock stroke motors.
