Lower and upper control arms, along with Drag Radials are gonna give you much better traction at the track, but i dont know if you still wont spin. Depending on what kind of transmission you have, you can get a better clutch and short throw shifter(manual) or you can get a shift kit, a torque converter, and a transcooler to help with the auto. Probably should dump the chip since you said you dont know what it has. A good dyno tune will help with the shot of nitrous, and one other thing you could throw on is a hand held tuner, either SCT or Diablo.

Throttle bodys really dont offer alot of HP for the dollar but they do improve throttle response, with your setup I would think it is the limiting factor too since you have CAI on one side and an aftermarket Plenum on the other.

Some people say 125 is okay, but that is definitely the MOST you could get away with and really you would be pushing your luck.

Traction, get Granatelli Upper and Lower Control arms, should be able to find them for under $250 and they will help plant the tires. Also, Full -length subframe connectors are a must for the kind of power you will be making with a 100-125 shot of nitrous.
