leave it how it is. If you try to add FI you will blow the engine up. Your CR is probably too high.

don't force feed it..as stated cr to high.......contact ED at www.flowtechinduction.com and he will set you up with a good cam, a tight lash solid roller might be in line.....get some more rpm out of it and there will be the extra power needed.

I agree with MJR on the cam.
Tight lash solid roller time if you really want power out of it.
I also think that 10 is way to much compression for adding any boost.
