Default H23 engine build, anyone with any crazy ideas?

i got a 92 prelude with a h23a1, it allreadt has

dc headers
full exhaust
aem intake
aem underdrive kit, no A/C pump
msd coil and wires
findaza 2.1 clutch
findaza light flywheel

i love the engine the way it is but i would like to squeeze some more power from it, i am not going to swap for an h22 as i have driven several h22 powered ones and feel little to no difference. i want to keep the car n/a here are some ideas i have please give me some input about these potential mods

-shave head use thinner head gasket and 93+ octane ?

-adjustable cam gears and tune cam timing for improved torque ?

-port and polish head ?

if anyone has a h23 engine and has done any of these mods listed please let me know if it made a difference or not, or if ya got any other ideas?

i have the crower stage 1na cams and it pulls good but its in a accord and was the first time i drove my car with the motor in it so dont know of how much of a gain you would get but it pulled nicely and maybe with a tune would have felt better but i got that boost bite and am going turbo right now

and then you can always just keep the 23 block and throwa 22 head on.
