  Having a full tank will help, but there's not a very good suggestion. Reduce weight, meaning don't throw all your rubbish in the car. Also skirting and spoiler doesn't help cars when moving within Singapore's speed limit, they only add weight and slow your car.
  
  Heard someway, grounding could help improve engine power and reduce noise. Changing exhast extractor will help too. Adding filter or mod you air inlet. But all this only help a little and exhast mod being the best.
  
  Major up in power, turbo. It is not impossible to install it legally. Just have to go through tons of paperwork and the chances LTA allows it is small unless your car already comes with Turbo as stocks.

  Be sure that you have manual gear in the first place.

  hmm... if u can find fuel with a higher octane number, then it should help. also, u could get a sports clutch n short shifter, which would allow u to make faster gearshifts, and reduce % power loss in transmission.

  If you are refering to starting from 0kmh, you can try flooring your accelerator everytime your move off. This should work for most cars.
  
  If you are refering to the improving your acceleration from 60kmh to 100kmh, I think there is nothing much you can do other than changing to a more powerful car.
