But first check some really simple stuff before getting out the hacksaw or starting to lay tube.

Level the airplane across the cockpit with a bubble or digital tool, so that wings are level. Adjust the slip-skid balls to indicate center ...or coordinated flight.

Next, fly the airplane trim out and check the slip-skid ball. You just might find that some trim tabs may need "tweeking" so that the airplane flys level in coordinated flight.

Then, check for fuel burn balance. Might help and it's a cheap fix. And (big secret) your airplane will fly faster for the same power setting.
