You might see some small gains with a TB upgrade. I didn't see any exhaust or suspension upgrades in your sig, if you haven't done any of those upgrades, you should see some nice improvements in both those categories.

I say get rid of those slp headers man (I think all they made are shorties right?). Some lt's should net you at least 20 hp. Then a tb then youre talkin, injectors wont get you more power (unless your maxing them out) but you may be above your duty cycle at that power level)

I would do a tb and long tube coated headers.

Then I would go with sfc's, lca's, and torque arm. If you car is lowered and you don't have an adjustable panhard bar you need to get one of those also.
