This is probably what you want. I have used
R472_G_08.18.40R_PDS002_LP0003_DRM0001_reflash_XLR8.rar and have
gotten a week of stand by with my phone and light usage... a couple
minutes a day. The phone had just changed from 2 bars to one when I
decided to recharge it.

Be warned, you will most likely loose your address book as I did.
Entries will become useless gibberish. If you have backed it up
though, it's a simple fix to get it back. You will also need to
re-associate ringtone IDs and re-record voice dials.

Ya, there are quite a few custom V551 files, but Moto also released one to
service providers as well, but you have to see either your provider or
contact moto to be put in touch with a service center.
The ones on motomodders.net are fine so I hear, but you should back
everything up and be prepared to manually enter in your providers mms/wap
settings.
