Hi Franklin -
I also have a 900S ('92 3-door) aka The Lead Sled and have been considering my options as well. Short of going the LPT route (lots of advice on that on these forums), I think we're back to performance basics - get more air and fuel in and out faster.
I will likely be going with an improved intake (e.g. Swedish Dynamics), headers and a more free-flow exhaust. These parts are all out there from specialists - I would think additional power can be had with cylinder head work (porting, polishing, etc) but don't know if I'll go that route. As always, power costs money, and it depends on your pocketbook. I am hoping a few easy changes will give another 10% or so horsepower (say up to 155 or so...). I think expecting much more would either be unrealistic, expensive, or unreliable...probably a combination of all of the above.
