Okay, that sounds reasonable.
You'll want to swap another intake manifold on. I'm pretty sure the 3S-GTE manifolds have the same bolt pattern so I'd recommend either one of them or (preferably) a 3S-GE side-feed intake.
What size are the injectors? You should be able to get away with any top-feeds that flow more than 350ish CC/minute. Stock 5SFE injectors are something like 215cc I think... not that it matters since you've got the Venoms. The 3SGTE 440ccs are good for 275rwhp but they are side-feed.
The biggest power area is going to be the head. Uncork the intake and exhaust (which you've basically done) and then just start building the head to flow as much air as possible. I'd go for oversize valves and a very aggressive port & polish (your "race port" might be fine.) You'll also want to raise the revlimit and strengthen the valvetrain handle the faster speed. With cams and other mods, you will need high RPMs to get the power you're after.
Sorry I can't be of more help, I'm not very familiar with the 5SFE.
EDIT: I know you stated "5SFE" but have you considered using a 3SGE head? It would stay NA but have the added displacement of the 5S block.
