Time too start treating her right...

Time for me too start tuning, ive come too this conclusion as ive thought with a winter approaching i will be sideways were ever i go and will prob brake off or destroy a bodykit if i had one..
So do u agree i should consentrate on working with the realiability/power/interior/cooling instead of starting with the exterior kitting and looks?

Norway also have heavy salted roads at winter wich would prob stain and rust some applications on the car, so i was thinking id flush the old Tectyl off the bottom of the car and sandblast it before i covered it with a new layer and a body kit and paint job, but not until spring.
Bottom line too all this nonsense is how would i start doing simple operations too improve the power of my car?
Ive heard streetporting is one option but this would require me (a noob) too remove and part my engine down too port it, wich i would have no idea how too do, im looking for other options, got a racing radiator coming in next week so ill be solid when it comes too that.

Also, is there supposed too be 2 or 1 fans cooling the stock radiator on the `91 TII FC?

One fan- mounted on a thermo-clutch on the water pump- is stock.
