    anything you do to make it nippy is gonna cost.the cheapest mod you could do is drill out your rollers a few grams lighter.problem then is it might reduce your top end if you go too light .you should use digital scales to reliably weigh each one..drill out each one half a gram at a time,bit of a ball ache(yep your female) cos you have to fit them every time you drill them till your happy...go too far...repack with something like jb weld to bring The weight Back up.

    Ok thanks. yea ill give that a try and see what weight gives better acceleration then buy a set of rollers with that weight. Just need it to be quicker on round abouts till I get a stage 6 bore
