Invest in a header, intake manifold, 1zz throttle body, short ram intake, exhaust, lowering springs and rear sway bar. Then drive it hard.

If you aren't afraid of slamming it into second gear coming off of 70km/h merging onto the highway then this car has more than enough power. Most people are too shy to put the pedal to the floor. If you embrace the high revs and realize that the engine is more than capable to withstand it, than you're good to go.

Remember, it's more fun to drive a slow car fast then a fast car slow. Especially a slow car that weighs just over a ton

My engine is stock, but this is still so true.
