Pistons and rods, I'd go with je pistons 9:1, an manley or eagle rods. Eagle rods are suppose to be maxed out at 500hp, but I've seen plenty of guys making more. Intake manifold, I'd suggest a victor X , and cams, you can make the power on gsr cams or upgrade an go with like a skunk2 pro 1 series head package.

cp 9:1 piston
Manley turbo tuff rods
Skunk2 tuner1 or pro 1 cam depending on the turbo
Victor X IM
For the turbo kit go with a tubular manifold, 3" dp, 44MM+ wastegate, decent core intercooler.
Don't worry about port and polish, morosso pan, Spend your money alse where like in the head good valves/springs/retainers/guides/new lost motion.
What parts do you have so far?

cp and manley turbo tuff rods are the best just throw sum type r cams in it, they make efficient power in that power range

I would try with skunk2 tuner2's over the tuner1's. I think they make a lil more power...
