More time with the Powerseeker 127EQ

I eventually bought a 9mm GSO plossel eyepeice for the Celestron. While this is a noticably better eyepeice I'm not real happy with the scope now. I've become quite good at collimation, but find that the resolving power of this scope is not any better than my 30 year old Tasco 60mm refractor. In fact looking at the surface of the moon the old refractor looks sharper.

Question, is there any benift to removing the correction lens inside the focuser to collimate the scope, will I get a sharper resulting image even though collimation proccess seems to work ok with it in place ?
