Cold air intake is the best first mod. It will improve air flow into the engine, particularly at high RPM. Since your 94 has a mass-air flow sensor, it will pick up the extra air flow, and the PCM will add the required fuel. The MAF calibration table may be affected slightly, because of the slightly different geometry of the tube approaching the MAF sensor, but the change is so small that the PCM can make the required corrections using the long term fuel corrections.
