im rockin 1300~ sp (QQ) atm, and obviously thats not enough. i can pull 2k, so im not about to like.... kill myselfy but ive been 80 for 2 days now-- its time for me to get to business.
from what ive heard, the very first thing i want to do, like right off the bat, is replace all of my SP gear from pre-heroics with a better stash of heroics SP gear, to give my spells that oomph they need.
but how much am i aiming for? like at about what number is it okay to move from stacking sp in to other things like crit (i personally want to try out frostfire for a bit).
im not too upset cuz on the bosses when i blow IV mirror image, my sp trinket, AP, and i blow PoM i can get up to 3k dps. my overall is TERRIBLE-- i literally am always the bottom of the list. but in terms of actual dps, i win :P
input would be nice-- im rockin arcane ttw, if that helps you make a more informed decision. armory's in my signature

Armory is down as of this writing, so I cant tell you what to replace.
But as any spec, you want to be hit capped, which is 11% for arcane spec. You want to always gem for sp/haste, but never purely haste. Gem for hit is fine, since it is point for point, the largest dps increase until hit capped. Your dps is good enough to do 10 man naxx, but these days people expect 25 man naxx geared people to be doing 10 man naxx.

QFT..
anyways, there's not a certain "magic number" you should shoot for.. i think i started doing 10 man naxx at ~1400 spell power, but i was most certainly hit capped, and that's what you should look towards first and foremost.
Also, this link
Elitist Jerks' Best Non-Raid Gear
has a great, comprehensive list of things you should look to get from heroics/rep/crafting.

As much as you want :D
Focus on hit as Nijiax mentioned. Once you're hit capped, go berserk with anything else you want.
