Would you do this to your camaro? if you have, I need your advice

First off, i'm looking for more power. I am at 359rwhp right now (dynoed). i need to get to the 450rwhp. I have an L99 with bolt on mods.
I'm seeking for advice on these next mods, please criticize as much as you can (it does help) and do share your experience with hp gains. Thank you.
So here are my intentions for this week:

Kook headers (http://www.fastlaneturbo.com/kooks17...62lls3l99.aspx)

LG Cam shaft (http://www.lgmotorsports.com/G6-39X39-Series-Camshafts) is this for l99? Would you prefer TSD??

Cut outs (http://shop.quicktimeperformance.com...ct_detail&p=47)

Zex nitrous (http://www.fastlaneturbo.com/zex2010...mblackout.aspx)

and Hypertech 160 degree thermostat (http://www.lgmotorsports.com/Hyperte...ree-Thermostat)

Any objections?


Questions:
1. whats the difference with 7/8" and 3/4" headers which is better.
2. could i get all this done in one shop or i'd have to take the car to different places?
3. Horsepower gain goal attainable?

My mods are in my sig, quite a few folks said above 450 was impossible with the headers I had but I'm at 481/453!! Lmao so don't believe the hype! If you just want to go fast do what I did, if you want to spend a lot of money listen the rest! I know LG is running a special on the cams so talk to Anthony!! Good luck!!
