No tweaking on computer managed engines. Keep the plugs and wires fresh and keed the filters clean. You can get the PCM tuned and probably gain another 10 HP.
You can add mods such as Cold Air Intake & cat back exhaust.

It would affect your mileage if it were more restrictive than the stock intake.
