Default What to do next??

Well a few weeks ago i threw down 350 RWHP and 331 RWTQ running through full exhaust NO cut-out A/F ratio was 12.2 and stock injectors were @ 80% DC from 3900 rpm up and maxed @ 105% 6000rpm and was pulling 5-7 degrees of timing out with no knock counts across the board.Well i put some 36# injectors in and made some adjustment to the tune hopefully the timing is fixed.Should i spend some money on a larger throttlebody or gears???If so what size of throttle body and i really dont want to break my rearend.I know the gears are not going to make a positive difference in the RWHP aspect.But i would like to see 380-400 RWHP do you guys think this is possible???How much would a cut out help??I'd like to run mid to high 11's N/A race weight is 3540 with me in it

My mods are in my sig
