and the reason i said suspension was you don't have a choice unless you custom fabricate something that doesnt require a tubular k member (and good luck doing that). there isn't any "doing it afterward"
So basically I have to install it/ do everything from the ground up right?

Ground up install if you buy a kit, I you custom fab you may be able to use your cold side piping.

Why the he'll would you want that much power on stock suspension? You honestly think that is safe? Sorry but it annoys me to read the "gotta have a ton of power before I figure out how to drive it/ put it down" you're gonna be a danger to everyone with that much power

i would go with an f3 procharger. it would be cheeper than redoing the entire thing to run a turbo when you are already setup with a blower. f3 prochargers are putting down 2000hp.

F1-A is the biggest you can go that's street legal. Already researched it.

F3's are something you would see on an outlaw car, forget being street legal, it's way too much blower for a 4.6 2v to push. I've heard the biggest you would want is an F1-C. Don't forget if you go turbo you're going to want to change your diff gears as well.
