I found a set of Tomei valve springs for my 3rd gen 3sge. going from bone stock, what exactly would swapping out the springs do for me?

The Tomei valve springs are harder then the OEM ones installed. Therefore are better for high rpm lift/shut of the valves. On a stock motor you wouldn't gain anything since the OEM ones are designed for the 7200 RPM the 3S-GE does. Only when going for more aggresive cams and removing the rev limiter you would see differences between OEM and aftermarket (TOMEI, HKS etc)
