Default is this asking too much?

i have a 96 gt and i was wondering if i could yeild somewhere near 375-400rwhp with my wishlist

pi or stage 1 blower cams
FRPP supercharger @ about 10psi
boost cooler injection system

i need to do something with my engine as it is at 198k miles, but i really don't have a lot of money so i was wanting to just rering it for about $450 and add the supercharger

or does anyone know how would this work if i did the head swap and ran high compression and lower boost, my horsepower goal is under 450hp so i really don't want to send a lot of money on an extensive rebuild and not have anything left for a blower

thanks i am done rambling now[sm=icon_blah.gif]

the FRPP supercharger is an eaton unit so i wouldn't need any intake, it has its own

donno if this is true or not but ive heard that you can "warp" not really warp your cylinders but if you put so many miles on the engine that your cylinders wont be perfectly true anymore...so...if thats the case your rings would have "warped" with the cylinders too...so (if this is true) getting it reringed would actually make it burn (more) oil (if its not already)...so that could actually be a bad idea...if what im saying is true thennnn you need to bore it out...in which case...if i had to bore it...id try to make the power n/a since its already bored...maybe some nitrous too...is it PI already? (someone help me out on this logic plz)

it doesn't use hardly any oil at all so i think that the rering would do everything that it needs to

the real question here is wether or not i can make the power i want without having to do the pi swap, or if i did the pi swap wether or not i would have to change pistons
