Kyle;

This same question came up on the Fast German Auto web site
(http://www.fastgermanauto.com/).  Their response suggested an exhaust header
system, high ratio rocker arms, Bosch Platinium +4's, and a K&N air filter to
get a 25 hp gain.  For still more you could go with some big valve heads and
a 2.1L crank.  One of the magazines dedicated to little rice burner cars
suggested having the injectors matched can net several extra ponies.  The
theory makes sense but I don't know how well it will work with the Bosch
system or how practical it would be to do it (or have it done).
