Change your plugs wires rotor cap and clean your injecters and I dont mean add some injecter cleaner fluid into your gas!Get your injecters flowed and see if they are flowing all even.Clean your intake to, that will help.And always use the highest octane gas.

87 is the bare minimum for our cars... I put 91 in because the manual says for better performance use 91 or better.

do a google search for Toyota Parts, there's a UsedToyotaParts.com or somethign like that that is costly, but sometimes fair
