Default Shrike 40 w/ 46 and I want it to go FASTER

Andrew,
I never had the chance to shoot them with radar or anything like that. All I can say is that the DD was noticibly faster and it flew much better than my Shrike 15 or 40. The Shrike 40 had good slow speed qualities but was not fast. The 15 with a TT pro36/pipe was pretty fast but would not glide well at all.
I'm not putting your plane down or anything like that, I'm just letting you know of my experiences with the planes I listed. I did have a friend that put some kind of large Rossi (I think it was a 60 or 90 or something like that) on a 40 Shrike and it did ok.
