Default 1-34 Rudder

Serious question. I've spoken to several pilots regarding the handling
characteristics of the 1-34, and the general comment was that the Rudder could
have been a bit more effective.

My question is, Has anyone tried to modify the rudder to be more effective?
What would be the result of adding a small tab to the trailing edge of the
rudder? I'm not concerned with legality now, I'm curious to know if it could
be done. TIA

Douglas
