Question 1200 performance Upgrades

I have a 2001 1200s with the dual plug heads, screaming eagle stage 2 cams and carb, intake etc, single stage Ignition, and 2 inch V & H Drags. The Transmission is close Ratio and the Bike goes pretty well.
I would like to start drag racing the Bike in sort of a street/strip type application. I would like to know what I can do to pick up some performance. I dont really want to tear into the bottom end for a stroker or anything heavy since its low mileage. Im happy with the cam/ Heads combination also.
Does anyone know any simple bolt ons to make the bike pull a little harder. Has anyone used the Edelbrock Nitrous plate system and if so how is it? 10 to 1 compression to high for juice? Has anyone juiced with dual plugs? Help is appreciated
