250-300 horsepower out of a 305 tbi.

I am aware of the many threads about making power out of the tbi engines and that it is unpractical to try to make horsepower out of the 305's (switched the 305 out to a 350 in my Monte Carlo SS) but this firebird is a everyday driver and i want to keep my gas mileage and get some real performance out of it. I am open to any suggestions.

Thank you
