Man or auto? What size cam do you have? What other supporting mods are there? Have you considered doing the heads? That should get you to the 300rwkw mark or bloody close to it

Do the heads on it. That should put you around the 300rwkw mark

Dyno figures are just a tuning aid and shouldn't be taken too seriously.
If you were to compare your car when it was stock to what it pulls now on the "same " dyno then the difference in figures is what you would be looking at not the end figure.
As many will tell you every dyno reads differently some less some more but the only time it really makes any sense is when a few cars a done on the same dyno on the same day like at a dyno comp then you can compare figures.

Seems you have done pretty well everything - from this point on, watch the $$$$ go. Anything you do from this point to gain HP, is going to cost you an arm and a leg.
Bolton SC is probably the way to go - say $12-15K with redyno.

cheers
