Default d1sc buildup

ok this probably wont happen for a while but I'd like to see whats all involved. My next mod will probably be a set of lt headers. (current mods are cat back, lid/filter, pro 5.0 shifter)

In the long run i'd like to be stroked to 383 and have it supercharged. Keeping in mind that I do mods as I can afford them whats the order of things to get done that you guys suggest? I've heard various people say go naturally aspirated like heads and cam then supercharge, but wouldnt I have to change out the heads when I supercharge to lower the cr? I guess the real question is what order should things be done so as to minimize cost, or having to rebuy parts.

The order I was thinking was something along these lines:
supercharge first,stroker, lower compression pistons, heads and cam.
Sorry if i sound like a noob, its because i am.

I guess I shoulda mentioned some of my intentions for the car, and the type of car for that matter. Its an 02 TA. I plan on it being a daily driver, so long as the weather permits. Thanx, any input would be great.

The route I am going is the Procharger first. I figure I will run this motor till it decides to let go.

Then I will build the engine for the boost.

I suppose there are good arguments for either route.

If your gonna go FI i'd stay stock cubes and do a set of forged pistons maybe a small dish to get a start on droping compression and rods. Then get your blower then do a set of ported 6.0 heads to drop the comp. lower and blower cam.
