To be honest, nothing should be changed.
Windows 7 will work well with SSD, without any 'tweaks'.
All "tweak" guides are overzealous in changes. Just leave it be. There are downsides to doing all those things they suggest.

If you used anything else than Windows 7 installer to partition the drive, you may want to check whether it's properly aligned: http://www.techpowerup.com/articles/other/157
