Default Part enquiries for higher HP.

Im after opinions as to what parts to use though in the next step of the build in my blue car.
Basically, when it was getting tuned on Wednesday we found a few issues.
One was that the intake is too restrictive.
The other was that they started running out of fuel around 4900rpm.
This means, with 152kw atw, they still have another 1300rpm to tune before its done.

I need advice on :
Fuel pump
Plug leads
Tyres (slicks)
and intake.
I also have to change injectors, to XR6t injectors, and am changing the cat to a 3 inch ballistic racing cat.

For an intake, my only idea is to go straight through the bonnet, I have no issues with this, but Im keen to hear peoples ideas, no matter how radical they are.
Personally, I want a 14 in round air cleaner with chrome top straight through the bonnet, but am unsure on legalities.

After all that, it will need a bit more play on the tuning side of things.
I will need slicks too, as now, with only 22psi, I cant get traction at the strip, I can only stall to 2300RPM, and the cam doesnt come on till 3000rpm on.

My 1/4 times in shocking weather was a 15.02 @ 93 mph, with 2.2 60's because I cant get traction. :

So post away, let me know some ideas on the items I need, and part numbers and suppliers if you have them.


Thanks,
Josh.
