This is making its way through all the forums:

Modifying the 3SG non turbo engine on http://www.roadandtrack.net.au/

Some interesting comments:
* pretty much anything you do external to the engine will give negligible benefits (pod filters, CAI, exhausts
* snorkel ram scoop is likely to be better than a CAI mounted close to the road surface
* standard Toyota air intake always seems to be several degrees lower than the engine bay; most pod filters are so badly fitted that they do nothing or actually suck in warmer air than the standard setup
* changing the camshaft is likely to be the single greatest change one can make
