Default Need help more speed !! Live in Florida!!!

Hello I have a 2013 ruckus Minor mods 200lbs rider

Body: textured plastic floorboard under seat bag 30w H4 led eBay headlight USB/battery tender cable.

Engine: WPS featherweight lithium battery polini variator with belt 6g sliders rolling wrench EVI lightweight flywheel stock exhaust and intake with UNI filter.

So from what I heard if you live in Florida or at low altitude miles from the beaches you can throw on a uni or K&N filter and you don't have to rejet I tried it and it WORKED! Starts right up doesn't bog but gave me only a small increase in speed and acceleration 41-45 Mph and doesn't cut off in the rain actually makes it more rideable when it's pouring but my question is I want more stable speed and acceleration should I play the air/fuel mixture screw or should I go up a size in Jets??? I was hoping to keep the stock air box I use this as a daily vehicle to work and back and delivery carrier for Postmates and ubereats and I ride in the rain sometimes off-road and advice would help!!!

Tune the CVT. Polini variator, multiple sets of Dr. Pulley sliders, an rpm tach and get to tuning!
