set of cams..
polish and port head.. and manifold matching.. tri cut valves..
stainless manifold.. downpipe.. cat back exhaust..
a good service..
bike carbs or individual throttle bodies..
standalone management
remap

The above should see you into 200bhp+...

That k&n is a waste of money. A modded airbox would have been better and cheaper.

A standalone would be the first stage, as you can gain quite a bit on calibration alone. Any further mods would need optimisation any way. Standard ABF can gain around 20hp from good calibration using a SEM alone.

You need to do some research but probably not on here. Alot of investigation into these engines has been done on CGTI.

Look here. it will show what different specs and engine types really put out.

What exactly does this entail?
