Default mild boost set up questions

ive made no decions on what I want to do so ive been posting in different areas on some ideas and questions.. boost is one of my ideas

so im playing with some ideas on some fun power for my 2000 z28..
that has 135k on it and one of the questions I have is the miles to high.
for a mild boost build maybe require new rod bolts and head studs??

I would like to see 450 to 500 rwhp would this be to much for an ls1 with this many miles?

do all boost builds require aftermarket fuel pumps or is it just the big power builds?

I found couple of different kits cx racing has I was looking into them.
they are my kind of pocket book friendly.

Miles are perfect!! and a walbro 255 with a hotwire kit and some 60lb injectors would easily meet your goals.

There are vendors that sell inexpensive truck manifold kits. A tc 78 turbo would be perfect. One walbro 255,60lbs injectors, don't touch the rod bolts. Get some head studs and factory ls9 gaskets.

What trans do you have? Expect this to cost around 10k when your done. let's be real people.
