If it stalls when you hit the brakes, then your idle is too low.
As for more speed, the best thing to do it change the gearing. You can get a new pipe, but it won't do all that much and they cost a good chunk of change

3 reason's most likely:
1: the idle is set to low
2: your clutch bell bearings are bad
3: broken clutch spring
