Default Power gain tips

I have a Jackson Supercharged GSR that has:
10:1 compression rollerwave pistons with eagle rods
84.5 mm bore, closed deck sleeved block
Full race head
Titanium valve springs and retainers
GSR intake cam Type r exhaust cam
AEM cam gears
Endyne blower modifications
LHT intercooler
Kamikaze header with 3" down pipe to 3" thermal exhaust.
I am stuck at 276 whp and 216.7 tq I am looking to get more power out of this set up and was wondering if its worth it try some other parts I dont know about or maybe get a 50 shot of NOS and set it up on my s300 to hit around 3rd gear to get top end power to make up for top end powerloss. Also the exhaust is a little loud and was wondering if there is a good muffler I can replace the thermal muffler with but still use the rest of the thermal piping.

Why would you need more power? I hear superchargers get you into the 10s, regardless of how much power you're making.

Sell the JRSC and install a custom turbo kit.

With having the LHT intercooler I get pretty good intake temps, but could I get cooler temps by also using water injection along with the LHT intercooler to maybe be able to get more timing out of the car. Or is this a bad idea and waste of money.

How much boost are you running ?
IMO a turbo charged platform on a honda is a much better solution then a JRSC setup.

I am running 11 psi but have invested alot of time in the jrsc and would like to try to maximize this set up. I heard that John at LHT has a b20 jrsc that was producing 298 whp and I would like to try to get there if possible. I understand that turbo can easily make more power than the jrsc, but it would be cool to have a 300 horsepower Jackson Powerd GSR, because how often do you hear people with jrsc producing those numbers let alone even own a jrsc.

If you insist upon keeping the JRSC, install a 50 shot of nitrous
It will effectively cool the intake charge & make power.
