Only good advice I have is get an airbox.

Other than that.....

Is it running straight pipes? The exhaust mods make a big difference too.

+1. Also unless you're running 11:1 or higher compression there is absolutely no reason to run any gas with more than 100+ octane unless you like wasting money.

Oh, and to answer your question, normally 2-3 sizes larger on the main should be close. Pilot jet might need upped one size but generally not needed.

Correction, make that 90 octane unless the engine is modded.
