I want it to move faster i took the mowing part off. I heard from youtube to take the exhaust right off and change pullies. Can i do much else like the govener i want it to go faster than it is but not so fast it blows the motor

If you block out the governor you will take a chance of over revving and major engine damage,,,
If you have adequate HP and low end torque, you can change the primary pulley (larger) and the secondary pulley (smaller)...
just like changing the sprocket sizes on a bicycle or a go-cart... :smile:KennyV
