Gen 3's with boost on pump gas is a tricky game especially if fuel quality sucks. I don't think your numbers are that bad given all of that. Keep in mind every dyno will read differently. Some dynos read high some read low, and correction factor makes a difference too. You may be on a lower reading dyno, and could be using SAE correction.
All that being said, are you sure you don't have any issues with false knock? That can be a real problem on these cars. Usually Lund turns it off but if the factory cat protection is enabled that will hurt your numbers. In either case I would too recommend some MAK cat deletes (or headers) for more power and peace of mind. MAK Hurricane inlet has shown solid gains as well. Both would be pretty cheap means of upping power.
In the end though E85 or meth is your only real solution. Meth made a huge difference on my car. I have a gen 2 but I was running 12psi and between 15 and 18 degrees timing depending on fuel quality. After meth I run 15psi with a consistent 20-21* timing. Significant power gained as well as other advantages. When relying on meth for adding power I would recommend a higher quality system like Alky Control, which will be more expensive than the above two ideas, but definitely the most improvement too.
800whp can be made with a P1SC, so its not the blower limiting you, it's the fuel.
