Default Ls1 heads set up help!!

I have about $3500 to spend on my ls1. I need help what should I get Texas speed heads cam set up I need to know what set up I want the most power for my cash. I want a aggressive cam but not to big. What fuel injectors will I need and do I need to change fuel pump as well? Should I just port my stock heads and do a cam? And I have one more question would It be save to do a rear mount turbo with a aggressive cam and head set up? Only about 5 psi tho? What power do u guys think ill make with just heads cams headers intake ext.?

If i had the money i would either send mine out to AI and have the ported or just grab a new set of TSP 2.5 5.3 heads and i would lean on the cam a little harder. I like my 226-230 but wouldent mind haveing a little more.
