I have done several of these cams, with the right bolt-ons 400 rwhp is in the bag. add 75 rwhp to those numbers also for spray.
I see you have a flowmaster muffler on there, that will hurt you a lot if you don't have a cutout, I have seen those damn things cost people 10-25 rwhp time and time again on my dyno, I also see the midlenths you have, the TR230 might not like those either, well see. With a reverse split cam, you really have to get the exhaust opened up, its specs are for that reason.

I love that cam-super streetable IMO even w/ 4.10's. I never dyno'd my old setup-tr230, gtp stg 2's, ls6, etc.-but it ran some 11.30's@121 in muggy Stl weather w/ a near sideways 1.65 60ft (Da was 1885ft). I was shifting @ 6300 (limiter set @ 6600) with stock 26lb inj-the motor really sounded flat at the track-I think with inj. and a retune I'd have hit 125 mph on a good air day in Stl-0 density altitude.
The exhaust really has to be working for that cam to run well. I had dynatech 1 3/4's with 3" duals/x/into bullets. Nitrous also likes a free flowing exhaust-I wouldn't get too caught up in your n20 numbers-that cam isn't exactly a bottle cam.
Good luck
