My power on my TT bike is so crap. It's bothering me.

Experienced TT'ers: as your body adapts to the extreme position does the power come back up? How long does it take? If I had to guess (I haven't tested yet) I'd say my threshold his probably 15-20w lower on the TT bike than on my road bike. My position is really good in terms of drag, so I'm still considerably faster, but if my body isn't going to adapt and bring the difference down to 5-10w then I'll adjust my position for a little more power.
The plan right now is to be on the bike at least twice a week all winter. Should I expect a relatively quick adaptation? Or should I adjust the position to be a little less extreme right now?
