How to get a yummy turbo/gusher w/ [Flair 2 Pro and 1Zpresso J-Ultra]

Yo espresso heads,

Looking for some help. I use a Flair 2 Pro manual machine and my grinder is the 1Zpresso J-Ultra. I am trying to dial in a washed light Ethiopian (https://www.oddboxcoffee.com/shop/p/halo-beriti-ethiopia).

I am at about 1.5.5 on the grind setting right now and I am almost able to run up to close to 5 BAR and get around 54g in 11 or so seconds. It is tasting okay but I feel like I can get better! It's still somewhat sour and not as juicy as I'd like. Any tips would be appreciated, I am not a total scrub but am generally not as good with light roast gushers, I can get medium to medium-dark roasts dialed pretty easily on this set up but I want to improve here.

I have watched a fair bit of Lance's content on the topic including the recent video "Why Light Roast Espresso Makes No Sense (And How To Fix It)" but I still think I am falling short.
