have you considered ported heads or blower cams to go with that supercharger? that would really liven things up, you'd probably pick up another 50-70 hp, if not more, than with the stock heads and cams. you'd have to sink another $2,000 or so into the motor for the two, or you could just go with the cams and valve springs for about $800.

Maybe nitrous, just spraying the intercooler can make some real gains. But if your not doing any bottom end work then I would suggest that over anything.

full exhaust (midpipe and longtubes)

gears

slicks if u dont got em

i wouldnt suggest many more power adders until you get your car beefed. that KB should be able to max the motor out with a few more boltons (full exhaust, bigger MAF if u dont have one, etc...)
