So what mod now?

Hey guys I'm trying to decide what next costly mod I should do to the X. Let me add that my longterm goal is to have a reliable DD X that pushes 400 HP (410-420).

Currently I have:
XXR 527's 18*9.75
WW SSS Spoiler (I had the short bus wing before)
Tein S-Tech
APR Windsplitter w/ rods
HID Headlights and Fogs
CNT Racing - Catted DP to Dual Exhaust
ETS 4' FMIC
ETS Upper and Lower pipes
ETS Intake

*Later this month im going to COBB SoCal for a AP + Protune (late SEPT), however I want to purchase one more mod before the tune just so it's less times coming back for re-tune with every new mod*

I was thinking of getting CAMS, but is it really worth is on the stock turbo? I am definitely going to upgrade my turbo to a RED or GREEN. I don't want cams that will lag the spool of the stock turbo. However I'm willing to sacrifice a slower spool if in the long run it'll benefit my RED / GREEN.

I know I can do bigger injectors, fuel pump but that has already taken into consideration when I upgrade the turbo. The turbo will be the last upgrade I do because I will be purchasing turbo + (injectors, fuel pumps, catch can, etc..)

At the moment I'm thinking cams and just getting over with the price and install cost or GrimSpeed EBCS.

I already have a boost gauge, wideband, perrin gauge mount.

Thank you for your suggestions
