If I were you I would just go with the D1SC kit and only push it to 5-6lbs with a safe tune and then when the time came go with a forged shortblock and turn the boost up....

Keep in mind that all ProCharger HO and StageII kits are designed around a totally stock engine and at least 91 octane. They should not damage your engine at the suggested boost levels with adequate pump gas, fuel delivery and the provided tune.

The D-1SC is what I recommend. It automatically comes with the larger 4.5" thick intercoolers, and will have plenty of extra available cfm for when you want to upgrade your engine for more boost. Bob
