Nothing, I guess, however an quality set of springs and struts will increase the handling of your car an incredible amount.

Do you mean a Manual Boost Controller?

Sure that'd be a great idea......if you're looking for a reason to replace your engine

i recommend working on the handling department before adding h.p.
like better springs, strut braces, and even a short shifter.
and if you must have the sound(and power) a good exaust system

reflashed ECU is probably the way to go for power
