I think 5 to 6g sliders are too light, will compromise top speed.  My CVT has Malossi Variator, 7.5g Dr Pulley sliders, Malossi Torque Driver, Malossi Green Torque spring, OEM fly springs, and works awesome.  CVT take awhile to tune, so be patient and only change one component at a time.  Read up on CVT if you don't totally understand how they work, there is lots of good info on web.  Cheers
1st and 2nd usually have an unfair advantage.  3rd is usually the best, can learn the most from.  paraphrased from Don Quixote, over 400 years ago, still true today

Setup will vary depending the rider weight and what's done to the scooter. Stock weights are 8.5g, which I think were great for me at a bit less than 200 pounds. Maybe 8g wouldn't be bad for me.
