A good major service. Plugs, leads, cap, oil's etc. You would be surprised how much difference it can make 8)

Apparently high-compression pistons give a fair bit more go.

As Rusho said, give it a good service.

G13's are fairly well tuned from the factory so are one of those motors that the financial input to get a decent power increase is prohibitive.

Save whatever cash you wanted to blow on the G13 for a G16B transplant.

X heaps.

Pouring time and money into a G13B is pretty pointless. Yes, there are (some) gains to be had, but generally they will come at the expense of moving the power band higher, not necessarily a good thing.
