    I was thinking about ordering a new air intake valve and exhaust system from JEGS, since I know the owners and able to get a discount.

    Does anyone know what brands are good and bad?

    That is an absolute waste of money. If you just change the intake and exhaust valves without porting and polishing the heads then it's just money down the drain.

    There will be no difference

    Are you talking about valves for the heads or Air Intake and Exhaust?

    Thats uncharted territory for me too, but from the sounds of things, more research is required. As for performance mods, check out www.xr-u.com those guys have had the 1GR-FE apart more times then anyone I know.
