No you see that shiny part if you can get the belt to climb half way up that shiny part you will gain close to 5mph more on your top end, Try Heavier weights.

Weights are heavy it shifts at 5k I have 12g. Do you think a 842 belt will help?

I assume your current belt is 835-20-30 so yes you could try a 842.

Torque spring all that is going to do is require higher rpms to get the belt to climb higher.
If in your area you have a lot of hills that you have to go up and down on then yes, you could put in a stronger CONTRA spring to require higher rpms and when a load is put on it raises the ratio in the Clutch pulley and drops it in the Variator for more low end torque.
But if you live in a flat area the lighter contra spring is better.

Well my rear pulley does not close all the way when I stop making take offs slow. So I thought a little longer belt and a spring that is a little stronger would help. How much stronger is the blue spring compared to my stock one?

Stock springs on 150s are rated 700-800 the blues are 1000, yellows 1500 and the red 2000.

I ordered a new belt and a blue spring so maybe that will tighten it up
