I've have never used that particular film but if you have thin negs, it's an exposure problem. Not enough light getting to the film.  Increased development would only increae contrast. ie: a larger separation between the darks and lights.  Better to stay with known brands of film.  Some time ago there was a company out on the West Coast that was selling respooled movie film as regular 35mm.  That didn't work either.
   
  If you exposed at ISO 80 perhaps you should try Iso 25 (the old Kodachrome2 speed)  It seems that by providing you with a low-contrast developer they are looking for "beefy" negatives. If the information isn't on the film, you can't manufacture it.:-(
