No.
There is no SAFE way to boost your iguana's already rapid growth "even faster".
Why would you want that?
There are ways to prematurely increase the size of an iguana, but it has to do with offering improper food items in the diet, that will cut-short the life-span of the animal.
Do keep in mind that growth rate greatly decreases after 2-3 years, yet iguanas (as well as other reptiles) never cease to grow 'til the day they die.
Keep it healhy, clean, with a proper diet, spacious enclosure, proper lighting, et., and your red iguana, if it's a male, will grow healthy and strong into the big godzilla you crave for.
There are no shortcuts with these guys, if anything, patience (and lots of it) is an important element in iguana husbandry.
Hope this helped.
