More POWER comes down to H.P./torque. Need to know your budget. Chips/air cone can ONLY do so much.
If the body is perfect and you plan on keeping her......keep your eyes open for a Euro Spec 3.5 liter - 218h.p. Most folks sell them complete with ECU.AFM, wiring harness. DIVE into it - Great winter project for you. Pull the head , have it ported/polished - Scrick 282 cam,AFPR, Headers (I am having them made) You will be in the 240-250h.p. range. Trust me - I have that exact motor in my HARTGE H5S - It screams!!!!!!! I can break the rear wheels loose in 1st and hit second.
Lots of fast FUN! Just start saving your money.
