Pour it on

Hi, I'm looking for the translation of this expression.

Here's the meaning:

Pour it on
To hit it hard. To stop kidding around and get serious. When a boxer goes in for the kill he's "pouring it on". To become very focused and effective.
During a car chase, the pursuer might say: "Let's pour it on...!" or the pursued might say: "He's really pouring it on...!"

PS you can also incorporate the verb precipitar(se) --I think, but let native speakers clarify this.
