Default shooting for 450

this is my dyno sheet with stock intake. Im coming home next month and im looking to get up to 450hp. Just one of the goals I have for the car. Ive bought the ls6 intake and getting the under drive pulley. I know that wont put me to the 450 range. So my question is: what do I do next to get there? Should I have just gone to the 90/90 setup or is there anything else other than spray that will get me there. Like I said, I would just like to check off another goal of the car that I've set. Wont be too dissapointed 425-430.

I would shoot for 430. That is a good number through an auto.

How close do you guys think I would come with my set up and a FAST 92 and the pulley. Do you think the money would even be worth it.

I think you can probably get around 440 with a ported Fast 92 and the pulley.

get a victor jr. and an elbow if you look around you can get bith of those for about $350 new and you have an inexpensive 90mm setup. Then you just need a tb. It will flow dead even with a stock fast 90.
