Headers, high-flow cat convertor, air intake, upgraded cam (assuming your XR6 is NOT a VCT engine), shorter diff ratio.....these are some of your options - do a search and read up on some previous threads about similar things...

I couldnt be bothered copying and pasting my sig, so just look at that. Only other thing is ported throttlebody, or 6 throttle body setup and of course NOS or forced induction. Or a stroker from CMS which are still in development.

What is your budget? I'd look at completing the air intake and exhaust system by adding bigger piping, better filter, some good headers and high-flow cat.
These may be essential to get the best out of anything else you're going to do to the engine.
