Throw a block of dry ice over your manifold 
That would add you a few ponys.

Some of my rituals include:
Changing plugs/adding a little gap
Adding some ignition timing
Air front tires up to 40-45 psi, lower backs down to 20-25 psi, depending on the tires
If the air filter is dirty, run without it
Clean the TB
Check the rotor and cap terminals, file them clean
Verify/adjust fuel pressure (those with an AFPR)
