Thanks all.
I swapped for 125's and the difference is huge, pulls fairly strongly now from 2000 without the soggy feeling I was getting. Maybe I was getting a little greedy with 130’s...?
I'd originally planned to remove the airbox baffle but it doesn’t seem to have a removable restrictor, certainly nothing like I’ve seen in pictures here.
There is a bulkhead immediately next to the filter with square apertures, just before the air flows into another chamber leading to the inside of the carb inlet bellows, but this is part of the box moulding. The America is a '07 model, perhaps they’re different.? I’m a bit reluctant to hack away anything until the warranty ends, so this will probably do for now. Maybe I’ll can the box for a freak over the winter.

Also went for 2.5 turns out but I'm not sure this is just right yet.

For info, I pulled the plugs last night before hand and they we're as black as Newgates knocker..(Sorry, Brit thing... ), so the advice on being rich was spot on.

I've used Dinqua's site for a lot of info and found the step by step instructions a great help. (Forgot about the Jet program though). Thanks D!

Been a pretty good day so far,…. With your help I’m back running properly, I also found out that the float screw I thought I’d stripped, hadn’t and Man Utd won there first game of the season… What more can you ask… Thanks Guys.
