Do you want it to go faster, or be quicker?. Did you have the jug at least "match" ported (port faces re-timed) when you bored it out?. With that much overbore, if you didn't, you are probably loosing horsepower, rather than gaining it. Also, I would ditch the DG pipe and go with a Dyno-Port TOP ender Works pipe or an LRD (if you can find one) adjustable for peak horsepower.

get rid of that dg pipe. find a pipe for top end. put a bigger rear sprocket on. if you still have the stock carb get rid of it and get a new aftermarket carb.
