speed

I notice that my skymaster is slower than others. I have a 69 337D. I never get 169 Kts. I have de-ice boots, and remember Kevin saying that those take about 10-15 mph off of cruise. Also, I have the Radar Pod, and that has to take some more off of my speed. Do other people with boots notice that they are slower? Does anyone have a feel for how much speed we lose from the Radar Pod? I won't remove the Radar Pod, and the boots are old. Will replaceing/refurbing the boots improve speed?
Thanks
