Supercharge it or aftermarket injection computer. Exhaust and extractors will help, but it's only a temporary solution for the power crazy.

The standard 8V EFI is really crap as far as EFI systems go (although still way better than a carby). Any big power gains will need this to be upgraded, and will release a few ponies on it's own.
