It will run better with the 850, but I'm not sure it would be worth the extra expense.
If your exhaust isn't up to the task ( headers 3 inch with flow through muffles) the 850 may not be much improvement.

I would probably borrow a good 850 from a buddy to see if it picks up, before I bought one. I'm thinking with 1 3/4 primary's it wont show you much.
