What kind of gas do you use? When i ran my sled on super not reg. I got a big speed and power increase. Clean up the carb and get new spark plugs. Some little ways to get more bang for your buck if you know what I mean

Premium gas wont make more power over regular unless your engine has a knock sensor and high compression, so dont bother using it.

The only things I can think of short of a bigger engine, super charger or invasive engine work is a tuneup, governor removal and maybe free up the exhaust. Since you mentioned hunting, you probably dont want it loud, though.
