I would have to agree with @whitebeast You may be able to get another 20 to 30 hp out of the current engine spending $8K to $10K (Supercharger, tune, headers and exhaust) sacrificing reliability, or you can sell it and pick up an IS350 with low or lower miles and gain another 100 hp. The performance of the two cars is night and day. And MPG is pretty much the same. Also, you won't have to worry about the carbon build up issues. I have a 2010 IS350 Sport I picked up with 52K last September, and it's one of the best cars I've ever owned. I've driven my co-workers 2008 IS250, and although it drives really nice, it just doesn't have too much power
