there is no chip for the GS. lexus ecu is a tough nut to crack; there have been many claims by chip makers that they've done it, but when put to dyno test, their claims are not validated.

as for intake, joe z makes one but don't expect big performance gains. only way to get big performance gains with the 3GS will have to be via S/C, turbo, or engine swap. for that type of money, you would be better off buying a faster platform instead.
