Make sure thetransmission is inthe right gear so that the engine is near the torque peak, because it takes a while for the transmission to shift down by itself, and by then it may be too late.

sounds like a driving issue

Do what pete said and then a shift kit might help...gears as well...

obviously cam and valvetrain if your up to it...

electric water pump gets you like 10hp at high rpms
