Nothing I've heard of. You can gasket-match the ports for better flow, and an open spacer will tend to make the engine "think" it has a bigger carb, but that's about it.

If you want more RPMs, go with a Weiand Action+ or Stealth, or Edelbrock RPM.

That's true, but the performer is still not a very good intake, comparatively.
