Bolt on camaro what's my next step besides force induction

2010 SS 6M looking to get some more out of it and lower my 1/4 mile time not really looking to do sespenion work and don't know what would be the next step to get the most bang for the buck I been doing upgrades here and there and it helps when it's spaces apart I'm not a guy to drop 15 grand at one time but grand here and there doesn't make it so bad so trying to keep this time around $1000


Here's my total engine upgrades

MBRP catback exhaust kooks 1/78 headers vararam intake comp cam done by vector motorsports dyno tuned by breathless performance car put out 458rwhp

Other upgrades

Drive shaft shop 1000hp axles pfadt trailing arms eibach lowering springs nitto nt05sin the back nitto invos in the front


My thoughts on the next thing to do is either 3.91 gears or a 100shot even if there's a few smaller things that would help that would be fine once again I'm tryin to keep it around $1000 give or take a few bucks please any opinions would help hopefully people who's had experience with this problem thanks in advance

Slicks for traction since you have 1000hp axles

Stickier tires and gears would be high on the list. Stiffer bushings will help with your launch and will greatly lessen wheel hop, which is murder on your drive train. Once you're sure that you've gotten the most of out your setup, add the juice.

Oh yea believe I know all about wheel hop it's the devil ! Lol but since I put the trailing arms and axles car doesn't wheel hop at all anymore. And as far as tires go I'm not gunna change what's on there until I need new tires then get a DR. But I'm not really concerned about that much because I would like to do a track setup because I'm still running stock 20s but that's something down the road I'm just looking to get more power or power to the ground I.E gears but Suspension is something I'm just not worried about right now
