Cold Air Intake, Header, Exhaust, Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator, tune-up, etc.... There is a lot of simple things that you can bolt on to see gains. Most gains are very small, but they do add up.

Careful with that NOS stuff... too much and you might blow the welds on the intake.

K&N filter will add at least 20 HP.

And the diameter of your exhaust is directly proportional to HP increase. Double if you go "dual" exhaust.

go turbo why not? buy 2 mitsu 13g's and get some custom manifolds fabbed up and the supporting ish and your twin-turbo. however at that mileage id buy a new engine or at least refresh your bottom end w/ forged pistons.

THANK YOU! This is the most important and basic performance mod to do on a 3vz - bumps you to 1mz/2jz horsepower (200), and you still have uber torque down low

here ya go, Toysrme's famous 3vz NA cheap free mods

this will help get ya started, but as others have said. the 3vz responds well to minor tuning things. these mods, intake, exhaust (especially the Y-pipe) and a tuner will definatly yeild 15 ponies. there is plenty of detailed information about all of these subjects in the search section
