• advance timing couple of degress (did this to my previous s14 and was more responsive)
• reroute air intake with cone filter
• cut springs (yes i know how dangerous, bad this is but IT will be temporarily)
• short shifter

Just for starters, eventually i will do a ka-t setup but to begin just this, what do you guys think? Any cheap power increases?
I wouldn't use anything other than OEM ignition parts, set the gap towards the wide end of the spec. I'd go 2.5", no bigger on the exhaust, straight thru is fine. Advancing the dizzy is good. relocate battery, or move somehow and have a short ram intake from the the battery tray. My KA responded well to this. You have butterflies in your intake, not sure about those. Remove mechanical clutch fan. You should be able to rely totally on your electric fan, assuming S13's have an electric fan.
