only run premium, make sure the blower oil is clean and full, give it an oil change if it hasnt had one, double check blower belt and drive belt for frays or problems, check pulleys to be sure they are tight and check the upper pulley bearing. Be sure the inter cooler is on nice and snug and go ride the #*$&@ out of it.
If its like mine have plenty of money for fuel, she is a pig.

In addition to what sled said, pop the chain case cover off and check the chain. My MPI set up at 10lbs eats chains every two years. Stinks they are $120 each but price for fun I guess 
Also if that hose is cracked check to make sure all the other hoses around the throttle bodies are zip tied and in good shape. Just a small leak there will cause it to hunt for idle. I know its a PITA but it wouldn't hurt to pop the plugs and see how they look. Replace with new gapped at .030 seems to work well.
