Figuring out what affects my speed

Probably the temperature. At 25" MP and 2520 rpm, I'd guess you would

output so you're probably closer to 80%.
OK. That sounds like enough to account for the difference in speed
(?).
The power chart in your POH should tell you how to adjust the manifold
pressure for nonstandard temperature conditions.
