Ok dig this one back up for you.

To get the ultimate best performance yes take it to a rolling road, but make sure its a mini friendly one!

Right you can get good performance without taking it to the rollers.

Your problem is defo the neadle, on a 998 with the stg 1 bits you have described you want to be running a AAA neadle.

Fit it and tweak your mixture till it runs well enough to get to your local garage, get them to set your CO to 1-1.5%.

You should be fine at that and no flat spots or running problems.

To get the maximum out of your engine you will need to make sure your timing is right and plugs/lead/cap/points/condeser etc are all set/in good nick

(the last thou i did like this, when at rolling road shootout did 57bhp!)

I have always used the STD one and had no probs, i would start with standard, if you run it and it doens work quite right pop it out and try the other spring, it only takes seconds to change them.

I experimented with dif oils in the dash pot and found "Auto Gear oil" worked the best.

Once the mixture has been set with a neadle, you can then play around you might find it fun!

Yeah,

well i said which one worked the best for me, and that was from a wide selection, based over a days testing back to back over the same test.

Every engine is dif and responds in dif ways
