Speed change like Mike mentioned.
I personally would not go over 1750 rpm, that should give you approximately 4.82 gpm. That 0.82 gpm seems small but you would feel and see the difference( dont forget to change to the appropriate tip). Pressure adjustment is subjective also, certain operating factors would determine the pressure decrease required if any at all.
What HP is your motor?
If you have it coupled to a gearbox, the most you could hope for is about 4.56gpm (if you have the general gearbox that are 2.176:1) without over speeding the motor, not that you cant, I dont think it may be cost effective and safe to over speed the engine.

Let me see if I can reword this. Thanks for the advice. I kind of assumed I could run it a little faster though. I was hoping for someone to say I could run bigger plungers and packings in it because maybe all of the 47 series have the same head or something of that nature.

You can. If you use 22 mm pistons and packing instead of the 20 mm, you'll get 4.75 gpm. If you speed it up to 1750 with the 22 mm, you'll get 5.73 gpm.
