Default New Savage owner with $200 to spend.

Hello everyone, I just got back into the RC hobby after a 16 year abstinence. After much research and no patience I bought a savage 21. I'm pretty happy with it, but I'm ready to do some mods. I'm looking for more low end power and need to know any weak links that need to be addressed in the drivetrain/chassis. I want to spend $200 or so to start. Is it possible to get one of these to pop a wheelie from a start w/out changing motors?
