Cool. Welcome to the site! A mini-me setup would definitely help- but you might look into swapping an entire D16Y8 drivetrain in there for cheap. The shorter gearing on the Y8 transmission will help you just as much as the power boost.

Yes, even with your D15B8. Shorter gearing always means faster acceleration, no matter how much power you have.
