Some suggestions about next modds please

Car is a 06 evo 9 with intake, down-pipe back exhaust, MBC, fuel pump, head studs and a tune. I put down 280/280 on a Mustang and I'm at a point where I would like to do a few more things but nothing radical. I recently got a used Works front mount and LICP and I would like some suggestions about what would compliment the front mount and put me a little over the 300 mark? The car is mainly a DD with some canyon twisties every now and then. I plan on doing some suspension work but before I retune with the front mount I want to get a few more things installed. E85 is not an option but I would like some input from you guys/gals about what would go well with my current set up. Again, I'm not looking for anything radical and want to keep the car in a state that I can push it hard for long periods without over killing anything. Thanks for your time and I appreciate your info.

I've seen some evo 9's with those mods hit a little bit over 300whp on the mustang dynos up in norcal but have seen some in that 280ish whp range. Maybe port the stock exhaust manifold and a bigger o2 housing and you can hit that 300 goal.

well without being to radical(think your menaing money is a issue) only things you can really do would be

Port exhaust manifold
Ported o2 housing
Porting intake manifold
65mm Throttlebody
Cam upgrade(this right here would put the biggest gains of all parts)

will get that 300 goal easy

I'd say o2 housing with open dump, which is also my next mod. I have basically the same mods on my evo8. If you havent done it already do a test pipe instead of the cat. I put down 295/300 on a dyno dynamics @24psi

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I forsee a o2 Housing in my very near future but a quick question on the fuel side, if this is as far as I plan on going should I invest in a fuel rail and injectors? I know eveyone says "this is the last modd" but I am for real in this is my last modd. I am happy where the car sits now and the only reason for the front mount is heat soak on the really hot days out here. So with the re-tune coming up I just wanted to get one or two more things that would compliment the front mount and be done.

With the power level you're looking for the stock injectors are completely fine. It's always nice to have a fuel rail to better control pressure however not necessary right now either. Just make sure you upgrade your fuel pump and your set.
