If I read the source code correctly, you can change the max output by calling RobotDrive::SetMaxOutput. So if you are running Speed mode, for example, with a 400 RPM as max output value, you can call it to set max output to 400 and SetLeftRightMotorOutputs will multiply the -1.0 to 1.0 range with maxOutput. So essential, you will be specifying a percentage of max output.
