you would really benefit from some tuning. Since you are running a chipped p28 get it dyno tuned w/uberdata. Also get some stiffer valve springs and titaium retainers, adjustable cam gear, mill the head .020" or so for a bump in compression or get some forged rods and high compression pistons.
But make sure to get it tuned. With any sort of head work and bigger cams and especially since you have a better intake manifold and larger throttle body, tuning is key. Don't just tune it with a vafc, if you have a chipped p28 you have everything you need to run uberdata.
With similar mods on my b16 i gained about 25 whp from tuning with a vafc, i have stg 2 cams and at the time had stock intake manifold and t/b, with a crappy dc 4-1 header and 2.25" exhaust. Now that i got it breathing better with an AEBS IM, 64mm t/b, good 4-2-1 header with 2.5" collector, 2.5" exhaust w/high flow cat it pulls a lot harder. Its all about flow.
You have headwork done, so if you get stiffer valve springs your redline will raise (if you cam makes power that high), get an adjustable cam gear to dail that cam in good on the dyno. A walbro fuel pump wouldn't be a bad idea either. But if its in the budget forged rods and pistons would be nice, it would also mean new rod bearing and fresh rings so a hone would be necessary.
But at bare minimum i would say get it tuned.

Dude a chip and a 50 shot will spell disaster. Get an Ignition box and retard your timing 2 degree's when the Nitrous is activated.
