I REALLY COULD USE SOME HELP PLEASE!
I have a couple of questions that I thought maybe you guys could help me out with. I want around 400rwhp and I'd like to know if these mods will get me there. It will mainly be a fun weekend street driven car.
Kenne Bell 2.1L with Blowzilla supercharger 8-9psi
Trick Flow Twisted Wedges heads or AFR 165 or 185's (I heard the Trick Flow heads have clearance issues with the Kenne Bell so if you could give me some more insight in that I'd appreciate it)
1.6 Rocker arms
Custom Cam or Trick Flow stage 1 cam (whichever you think would be best)
GT-40 lower intake manifold
BBK 1 5/8" long tube headers with BBK H-pipe
75mm Accufab throttle body
BBK cold air intake
80mm PMAS mass air sensor
42lb injectors
255lph Walbro fuel pump
and of course a good tune
Now my next question is should I worry about my bottom end with the stock pistons and rods, they're already forged but with the Kenne Bell it will be a lot harder on them. If i should get aftermarket pistons and rods would the Keith Black pistons and Eagle rods hold up for me? I really appreciate any input from anyone.

Sounds like you have alot of money to throw around 
. You can easily hit the 400 mark if you really wanted to BUT with more boost. You are already spending the money on the top end so DO NOT go skimpy on the bottom. That is a very important!
