If you don't mind losing a couple mph,try a prop with less pitch. A prop with less pitch will get moving faster,and that should help with accleration. Just be careful going to less pitch,if you go too small you may over-rev the engine if you run WOT. Anyways, how often is the sound smooth enough to run that fast ?
