If you think your cars performance is lacking your A/F ratio could be too lean or too rich or your timing could be off. To be able to see what is going on with your PCM you need a scanning tool like EFI Live or Auto Tap, you then can make the needed changes with LS1 edit. LS1 Edit is a great tool but you can get into trouble with it if you don't know what your doing.
As far as your mods go the reason you have not seen a big increase in performance is because most of the mods you have will give you little or no increase in performance. A good case in point are your shorty headers & power duct, shorty's are not really any better than your exhaust manifolds and the power duct gives 0 RWHP increase. The only mods that you have that really should help your cars performance in a really measureable way is your ST3200 your 3.42 gears & the K&N filter.
