Well, let's just say that six months ago I had absolutely no experience with motors of any kind what-so-ever. But by now I've done just about every performance upgrade to my scooter. I'll warn you that it just takes some patience.
If you can't afford an impact wrench then this video should help some:
I've never used an impact wrench in my life, so I can't help you much there, haha.
There's a small chance your former scooter may have been a "Secret 60", a 63cc engine disguised as a 49cc. With most 49cc scooters 45mph is tops, even with the optimistic speedometer and all the mods. A 63cc could possibly reach speeds of 50mph though the gears would limit it to roughly 50mph max.
If you're just looking for faster takeoff, better acceleration, and all around better performance then there are a bunch of easy simple upgrades you can do, like the ones mentioned. But if you want to go all out and really get 50mph on flats with your scooter you're going to need a Big Bore Kit.
Oh, and your scooter will get a little bit faster with breaking it in some. Give it another 1k miles and she should be nice and broken in.
