Default Process of building engine

I'm getting forged 8.5:1 pistons,rods,crank,iron block,basically the only thing I'm going to reuse from the old engine are the heads.

It's going to be bored, stroked and turboed.

408ci, port and polished heads and turbo cam.

What do you guys think this will put to the ground NA? Because I have to save up for the turbo now.

I'm going with a cheap used t60 kit first to start off, then I'll change out parts and build it up slowely. I'd like to have a t88 in it someday.
