Try tuning your A/F mixture to a stoicmetric level first.

menthanol (just a little bit)
retard your timing (all the way until idle suffers)
change plugs to a colder set
add a cup of bleach to your gas tank

Retarding timing until idle suffers will increase combustion chamber temps even more and thats the cause of NOx. If you have an exhaust leak, then the stock exhaust may help. Try removing carbon from the combustion chamber with an intake system cleaner, or water misted into the intake pipe with a spray bottle.
