Wow.... So I went into a shop and was like what can you do to up the power? He said well pretty much nothing since u already have a cat-back, intake, and tune. He said all i can really do now is just headers and cams wow.... so is there anything else i can do to my car?

Send it over to me!!
Intake manifold swap followed by springs and 1.8 roller rocker arm swap. Use the LS6 yellow springs, with Viton PC seals and any bolt-on rocker. If you don't plan on ever changing the camshaft, then go with the LS1 intake. It is a little better up to 5000rpm, after that the LS6 rocks up to 6500.
I loved my LS1 intake, with the stock cam and rockers. The engine was very snappy!
Headers will add a few hp up top, but you would get more of a gain with the intake manifold and rockers.

I know it's not a fun/cheap mod but build your transmission(converter too), install a shift kit, get a big trans fluid cooler and get a tune.
Extra insurance for future mods, and a great drivability mod too.
