Looking to increase performance?

I see all the stuff for the turbos like the 940,850 or 740 but is there anything that will boost the performance on my 98 V90 with the non turbo 2.9 liter 6? She is a good cruiser but I want more!

You can swap 92-94 960 cams for an extra 20hp top end, fix your airbox thermostat and add a larger funnel to the airbox.

Already blocked the airbox flap full open to the cold air side. What about a chip? Do they really help in non turbo cars? If so who do I go to for one?
The cam swap I have already looked at but that is a LOT of $ for 20 hp. Are there any aftermarket cams out there? Headers and exhaust mods? I’m used to working with older US stuff and this is my first Volvo.
