As far as engine choices go, you'd be losing out, money wise, if you got a gen II/III up to BEAMS spec. Consider also that you would only be competing with the top end power of the BEAMS engine, since the VVT-i fills out the low-midrange.
Cams are one of the primary power upgrades for the BEAMS 3S-GE. If you are clever, you can retain VVT-i, thus having the same low range torque curve, but an improved top end. TRD makes some trick bits, but other than that, you'd have to consider custom parts. It seems the TRD extractors are the biz, so they would be a worthy investment.
