Perform plug chops and determine what suits your bike best.

The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S.

seems you are on the right track...just keep working your way up, testing for performance and checking the plugs.  You do understand that putting the airbox back is your best performing option here?
If it works good, it looks good...

Ran better on top with 127.5, I'm trying a 125 next.
Reason I'm having to change is I replaced my baffle with a different One!
