If you have the stock parts, take the aftermarket ones out and replace them with stock to get a baseline performance. I would suspect that unecessarily replaced the stock powertube with the JCS one, they may have also replaced the stock spring. I would consider getting a stock replacement powertube and main spring and seeing if this helps.
