Default Ford Laser Paddock Basher

Hey I have just retired my 1991 Ford Laser Ghia to the paddock for general flogging duties and was wondering if anybody had some ideas for modifications foer extra power and longevity.

I'm considering fitting a metal sheet underneath the engine to protect the sump and maybe something for the driveboots.

Also what can I do to the intake and exaust to get some more raw power where would be the best place to disconnect the exaust?

Also has anybody fitted a supercharger or turbo to these cars and is it difficult?

On a different note I have also come into possesion of a late 80's toyota corollas with the dicky exaust recirculation crap.

Does removing the exaust recirculation pipe thingy give more power and what are the consequence?

One more thing what car would be the perfect paddock basher?

80's falcons are fun but they use a heck of a lot of fuel, I'm thinking maybe Datsuns they always go hard.
