No, you want to replace the weights in the variator and the torque spring behind the clutch assembly. My preference is to use 12g slider weights with the red 2000 rpm spring. It will give you better downshifts when you let off the throttle and the lighter weights will keep the engine in peak power band better. After the CVT upgrades are completed, you should see a much more responsive transmission.
The engine should be allowed to breathe better. If you run a performance intake and exhaust, you will be able to make most hills.
If doing these upgrades (under $100) still doesn't impress you, swap the axle sprocket to a 39-tooth and add a couple of links to your chain.
