You can get close to that, if you do exhaust first. Stock 12A, look for a Weber 45, Mikuni 44/48PHH. Some like the RB Holley setup. Carb upgrade will be of little benefit without exhaust, that's where most of the easy power comes from.

I did the exhaust last year. Pace setter header, no cats, a louvered resonator and a dyno max muffler. I don't know what's good so i just stuck it on.
