 Good quality end can and a K & N filter will clean things up and make the bike fill crisper other than playing around with gearing which to some extent will rob the top end there's nothing else.
 
Fazers don't normally suffer from lack of low end power compared to other 600's if anything they are stronger, make sure all is as it should be.  If you still want more you may have to look elsewhere say a twin.

I would say returning to standard can will improve things . I have fitted both open cans and baffled to my 600's in both cases I have lost low down responce,  KN filters are good
Please post after replacement .

By K&N will this suffice? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-FZS600-FZS-600-Fazer-98-03-K-N-Air-Filter-/200684151758?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item2eb9b523ce

or a free running one to each carb

Fitted K&N made quite a difference  :eek much better low/mid range and sounds alot better too .
