Make sure your Bowden cable is adjusted for maximum tightness. This will delay upshifts and make the car more responsive. I have also found that adding a cetane booster boosts acceleration as well. Driving the NA OM606 is similar to driving a 4-cylinder gasser. You have to rev it to get decent acceleration.
