check on the inline six forum, there is a whole list of upgrades, for starters though, it can't breathe from the factory, get a new intake and headers, i'd recommend doing it at the same time, its easiest that way. you can find a good set of long tube headers and intake from an online retailer, or you can get the intake, and get the three into one stock manifolds off of some of the later models that have fuel injection. that'd be your quickest way to get power.
