I did the power handle and the smoothie washers on mine. Like the power handle a lot, but have to admit that I have not had much opportunity to test the drag on it. Both worthwhile and relatively inexpensive upgrades that will be positive changes to the reel.

A buddy of mine that uses this reel for salmon out west uses a dremel with polishing wheels and some automotive rubbing and polishing compounds to polish the metal parts and then uses some different oil to make his reel perform a lot better according to him.
