I would get the PI heads and intake ($1000) then a forged rotating assy ($2000 installed) and a Vortech or Procharger ($3500) and install it your self... then get it tuned for another $500. So that only puts you $1500 over the limit but you will make close to 550+ to the wheels.

Don't forget about upgrading your suspension and brakes if your gonna do all that engine work....otherwise you're in for some surprises when trying to stop at that next red light after burning that ricer next to you. Just my .02
