I'm going through the same thing right now with my 115 etec. The cheapest place to start is to make sure your motor is at the right height on the transom. If it's similar to other motors you want your anti cavitation plate riding a little above the water at WOT when properly trimmed. This is easy to do yourself in your garage with your trailer. Took me about 15 minutes to raise mine 2 holes. Looks like your motor wants to be about 5700rpm at WOT so you might have to change props once you get your height set, but I would work on proper height first and go from there.
