there really isn't much u can do without spending crazy $$$$$$$
the 2.8 12v are really not modifyable.
the will run for 150-200K+ miles, that is the trade off

just use good plugs/wires
oil & filter
air & fuel filters

Wow! In that case, this toyota tercel I say today must have been putting down some madd horsepower! It had a "Powered by Toyota" sticker on the front, and then I caught a glimpse of a "NO FEAR" sticker on the back window as it farted past me. If there wasn't traffic, I woulda put him back in his place!
