To keep me speed or lose very little speed up hills i need to go stiffer contra and clutch springs correct?

more so on the contra spring.
unless you need to come to a complete stop on the hill and then accelerate from that dead stop. that's probably when you'd want stiffer on the clutch spring.
what contra and clutch springs are you running now?
you go stiffer on the contra, your belt will wear faster and the CVT is prone to run hotter, especially with a red (2000) contra spring. you also will probably have to get some rollers weights to tune the rate of shift to your liking.

Im currently running i guess what would be the stock Contra spring well what came with it. And Green(6K RPM) Polini clutch springs. I purchased a spring kit with grn/ylw/blu springs.
I have a Blue Polini and a Green Malossi contra springs ready to go.
All the power comes on at about 7-7100 RPM

With a stiffer contra spring you need to up the weight on your rollers. Its all a balancing act.

Not sure how much heavier i can go. Im running 3x 8.5 and 3x 9.0 ATM. That combo has given me the best overall performance other then hills. But if i can manage to keep the RPMs up over 7K then i should be good.
