You can get the engine ECU modified so it doesnt need the coded keys and the coded clocks....Allows the engine to run "stand alone" if you like
There are a couple of companies who can do it for about £150....I cant for the life of me remeber who they are though!

Can i ask nicely to use proper english please. I have a hard enough time understanding it on MSN let alone on here
A raceland 4-2-1 manifold and a full cat back exhaust system will improve performance as will shrick cams and lifters - its just dependant on how far you want to go with it all.
