Here are some thoughts, you may have to do some research but,

Headers
Underdrive pulley kit
Custom Tune (the FSC guys seem to talk about Justin @ Blackbear a lot)
Gear swap (especially if you have gone to taller tires and you will have to both ends)
Go electric with the cooling fan

When you compare your Gen I based 200hp V6 to the Gen III 275ish hp of the 4.8, its not really apples to apples.
