Wrong. The biggest gain is in the torque. Average power will outrun peak HP any day.
OP... What was your 60' and trap speed. You don't need any more mods unless you want to. Just a driver mod. Seat time at the track learning to launch and you will be good to go.

after that if you wish to remain N/A (naturally aspirated), then cam + heads is a popular route. this is quite reliable and you can hit upper 5xx hp to the wheels depending on what dyno you're on.
if you wish to go FI (forced induction), i.e. supercharger or turbocharger(s) then you can just slap one on and call it a day. of course you can still add a cam as well. this option is less reliable but will have higher power potential.
these are very general mod paths, you should do much more research on these mod paths to find one that caters to you best.
