    I have recently purchased my bike. It came with: 1) Yoshimura exhaust system 2) Ohlins rear shock 3) Holeshot powershifter
    Is there anything else I can do to boost performance??

    Remove the pair system and have it dyno'd. (have them check the fuel ratio on the dyno)

    Running the bike on a LOAD control dyno will tell you if the jetting is right. That means a dyno with a brake like a dynojet 250. A shop with a 150 can only run at wide open throttle settings, usless if your carbs are off on the low end or mid range. I don't know for sure if eliminating the pair valves will improve anything other than eliminating some hardware and some popping thru the exhaust but it's worth doing IMO.

    PAIR is simply the extra emissions junk that pushed atmospheric air into the exhaust system to "clean up" the emissions. I removed mine, and there was no improvement to either power levels or the popping and snapping on decel that most VFRs seem to have. If you do go the route of removing it, the biggest benefit will be 3 fewer pounds to tote around.
