the best mod i done on mine was the uprated exhaust manifold (4-2-1) i think it was from the fiesta centre and its made by ashley competition exhaust systems. That with a full through exhaust and kn panel filter will see you some decent gains, also always use super unleaded. My xr2i was so reliable and fun to drive, i miss it sooooooooo much.
