Welcome to the forums.
U can also try UDP´s or an aluminum dirveshaft.
Steeda and BMR has nice suspension parts for the car.

if i we're to save for a SC, what company makes the best at a decent price. And also how much prep work needs to be done? any internal mods?

I purchased a Saleen SC + the 475hp kit it was under 5500, I also purchase a Steeda CAI, new clutch/alminmum flywheel, and the Ford Racing fuel system don't know what I will make to the rear wheels but I am hoping for around 430. But you don't need to make any changes to the internals if you stay under 450rwhp. JDM make a kit for 5295 (call to get that price) that claims 425rwhp and another kit that is about a grand more claiming 450rwhp.

You need a better tune that what comes stock with the diablo, 4.10s a DS and suspension are good...tires probably would be good too.
