Do a waber carb, change the muffler or exhaust pipe, and bump the timing up a few degrees.

 

Consider a cam if you can open the case.

 

you can go into swapping ej22's and ecu's, but the 4spd 4wd is no match for 130 hp ej22, but you can swap in 5 spds

 

oldschoolers around here have gotten 110 hp with their ea81's with cam and custom exhaust, weber.

 

search the archives for this info, try' hatch patrol' for search

Since you are in Cali, you are ultimately going to want to do an EJ22/5 MT swap or GeneralDisorders SPFI swap. The Weber is not accepted there for smog.
