Default Future mods

I havent made up my mind if I am going to go with a procharger or a vortech ( intercooled) but I have decided I want a centri sc. I want to run about 8lbs with an aftermarket intake manifold (JPC racing or C&L) and maybe some cnc heads. I want to have an awesome street machine but I dont want to sacrifice driveability or internals. Any input on these mods would be great. Oh BTW this is not my DD.

i guess telling you what i have would be useful. 2005 GT 5 Speed. 4900 miles and 3.55 gears

Ruled against TT? I mean, the torque shelf on SC's aint too shabby, but I've never had a turbo and I would love to have control of that blow off yummy yummy sound. TT is pretty drivable too.

Have you priced those mods yet? For the price of a JPC intake and heads you could forge the internals, have cash left over, and make more power.

It is just a personal choice that I think is going to be best for me and what I am hoping to get out of my car. LOL. Yea the JPC intake is pretty crazy. But the C&L intake is about 700 and I was looking at the livernois heads that are 2000. Yea its expensive but I am young with a good job no kids and not married. And since it has low mileage its going to be a long process. I just want to figure out what I want so when they find there way onto the car they all supporting mods.
