Default Lm7 5.3 single turbo noob questions

Alright guys i know theres been plenty of write ups on this and ive done my research i just want a simplified post. I want roughly 600rwhp on the smallest budget possible on either pump gas or e85, stock heads, thats easily daily driven. What do you guys recommend for:
Turbo size, injector size, intake, valve springs, cam, headers for driver side mount, bov size, ​​​​​​and any other things you can think of i would need. I have a place for tuning, and also have an intercooler and piping.
Thank you in advance.

I did 600 wheel with a stock l33, valvesprings only with an MPT70. I would just get the Denmah kit from VSracing.

Do yourself a favor and make sure the can car handle 600 rwhp. That's 720-775 hp or so at the crank. Pretty serious really. Don't want to see anyone get hurt, that's all.

Why is it that every post that starts with "I've done my research" ends with a question that has been answered multiple times in the stickys at the very top of the forum the question is posted in?

No idea. I literally searched and read for a YEAR before I started my build. I've started very few threads because of the time invested. 98% of the questions asked have already been answered. I've noticed that forums are very cyclic and you have phases on the same types of questions throughout a time period.
