Moderate Success - Wrong Needles? 120-130

I took it for a quick drive this evening. Perhaps I just did not give it long enough to warm up, but the carbs felt very underpowered. I'm not entirely clear about the performance problem, but I figure it is due to having B18B engine-proper needles on a B20E engine. Hopefully that is it. Now that the HS6 carbs actually idle and balance, I realize that the HIF6s were giving me quite a bit of power despite generally poor behavior.

What needles should I be investigating for use on a B20E?
