not a lot lol.. its a 50 you wont get any more power out of it unless you put a 70 kit on it

A clutch wont really help. Fitting a sports exhaust to a 50cc means more revs less torque. Normally they are shit up hills but it depends on what sort of a hill you are talking about. It's always going to struggle up a proper hill. Hell even cars struggle up proper hills.

Speed down hill again means noting. If you are throwing a bike of a cliff it's going to go pretty quick but that has nothing to do with power... Same thing down hill.

There is no such thing as cheap tuning.
