"My system, VPI Scoutmaster with Zu Denon 103 sounds the best when the VTF is 4.0g (violin without distortion)???? What am I doing wrong? Would it be wrong to leave it that high?"
Picture your cartridge as a plow and your vinyl record is the snow.
That is more than double the rec tracking force, I can't imagine that is very good for your records. I would think that something else is off requiring you to over compensate with the extra weight.
If it were me, I would start by leveling my platter and start set-up from scratch. That's way heavy.
