What is your current Wide open throttle RPM? I have a buddy who has a fairly new 115hp and he has the same issue...very slow out of the hole. He is also running a 15 pitch prop.
A steel prop will help in both areas, but much of what you choose to do is dependent on the RPM's you have when lightly loaded at full speed. That is one of the best gauges to determine where you are at overall as a starting point. In most cases, if RPMs are high, hole shot is usually decent. If RPM's are low, hole shot is not as good.
So...if you can supply your speed and RPM's we can see what we can find out.
