More power?

Hello all, I just recently recieved my first Toyota. I have a 2000 Camry LE with the 5SFE engine. I did some searching and couldn't find much of an aftermarket (maybe I was looking in the wrong places?). Could I get some suggestions on what I could do to add more power?

Also, would it be possible to do an engine swap to the 3.0L V6 of the same generation? What all would have to be replaced? Thanks for any and all replies.

basically you need a very thick wallet to get any kind of performance out of a camry

for your car, you could buy a supercharger made by www.rippmods.com , the v6 swap wouldn't be much cheaper, and for that i would urge you to search the forums, the v6 is called 1MZ-FE

please please search...

shiftgate performance will make a turbo kit available for that engine and year, i suggest you do that. it will be cheaper than an engine swap and you will have more power and room for upgrades...

visit the link in my signature for shiftgate performance forums.
