a little more oomph

Is there anything that can be done to put a little more power into my 4 cyl. engine. Got an '02 Tacoma with standard trans. Great gas mileage, but it would be nice to have a little more juice when climbing.
Can't have my cake and eat it too, right? Hopefully that's wrong. I'm willing to put a little more gas in the tank for a little more power.
Any thoughts?

in general case, new header, intake, exhaust will help to gain 10-15hp.

I'd say that a performance cam would help you out along with the other mods, intake, header and exhaust. Or you could put out some real bucks for a LC engineering supercharger or turbo.
I wasn't paying attention to what 4 you had, Im not sure it LC makes a supercharger or turbo for yours? might check, they do for the 2.4l

I would say cam, headers, exhaust, and I would get them from this place
