LS2 turbo with nitrous T/A need help I recently purchased my first T/A an '01 WS6, when i purchased it, all it was, was a shell, no trans no suspension, no motor, and the original rearend was swapped for a regular firebird 10 bolt. I have owned 3 camaros prevoiusly so i have a small idea of what it should look like underneath, but im not clear on that. Here is what i have for it now.
LS2 6.0 liter with wiring harness and CPU
Tremec 6 speed trans
BMR suspension, panhard rod ETC.ETC and it lowers the car 1.5 inches
Full tubular front end clip, now installed
Frame rails from BMR for strength
Borla full adjustable catback exhaust
Corvette rims and tires
N.O.S "Bigshot" nitrous kit up to 400 shot
I need advice on the next few things i am considering
New garrett 67mm. turbo kit, with intercooler and has everything i need to front mount it, cost $2500
Ford 9" shortened, havent found one yet, i would rather not put ford s*** in my car if i can avoid it
port polish heads, forged rotating assembly, SSI intake, headers, injectors, fuel pump(s)
Im not sure what else i need, i am looking for right around 700-800 HP without NOS
thoughts anyone?

Why do you have nitrous if you want that much power without nitrous? That baby turbo won't get you there either. I would do some searching and a lot of reading on combinations. If the motor is completely stock then its going to take some work to make it able to support your goals. Fuel system will need to be able to handle what you throw at it. Be ready to spend a bunch of money. I can only estimate you need at least $5,000 or more just on the turbo and engine to get you where you need. A built motor, a good turbo kit, a built trans and a strong rearend along with the fuel system and prices start adding up fast. Like I said, do a bunch of reading and look at some similar combos on here.
