Questions on motor?

I recently installed a CompuCam 2032 cam and 1.5 roller rockers in my L98 350 and I am not satisfied with performance. I here from a lot of people that a fuel injected MAF motor will not give more than 350 HP. I want to build a radical street car and I am not sure what I need to make this happen. I have invested a lot in what I currently have but would like to add a better cam that will help the car to compete with the rest of the forth-generation cars. I found out after the fact that the 2032 cam is only a little over stock and that is not what I wanted. I want soemthing radical. This is a car that is only driven on weekends and cool evenings and I want a car I can have fun in. What do I need to add to the signature below to make this car perform with what I currently have installed. Bigger injectors, new cam??? what do I need? Looking for serious suggestions on making a mean street car!!

Well a small shot of n2o would always help, but I think thats sorta cheating. I didn't see. I'm not sure exactly what an edelbrock hiflow intake is, but I am sure that to make any impressive HP numbers from a TPI you need to get the Bigmouth manifold from TPIS and AS&M runners. Of course you could just get a miniram, or possibly a superram. There are so many options.
