How to Make a 33cc Gas Scooter Go Faster

You can make a 33cc gas scooter go faster through proper maintenance and fuel modifications. Increased scooter speed can also be achieved with customizations. The amount of money and time you are willing to invest in making your 33cc gas scooter go faster will determine the degree to which the scooter's speed performance improves.

  • Make certain the scooter's tire pressure is at the high end of the air pressure range. Low tire pressure will slow you down. In addition, good tire pressure will improve your gas mileage. Remove the scooter's governor if it has one. The governor is usually located on the accelerator linkage. Add octane booster to your fuel. The higher the octane of the fuel in your scooter, the easier it is for your scooter to burn the fuel and the faster your scooter will go. Replace the fuel filter and line and add a performance air filter. An advanced filter and fuel line will increase your scooter's speed performance.

  • Replace your scooter's stock exhaust system with a custom or high-end exhaust system. The faster the exhaust escapes the muffler, the more power and speed the scooter will have. A good rule of thumb is: The straighter the muffler, the faster the flow.

  • Add a windshield to your scooter. The right windshield will reduce the resistance between your body and clothes and the air. Wind resistance affects scooters with 33cc of power to a greater degree than it does those scooters with larger engines. A windshield is a rational investment if you want your 33cc scooter to go faster.
