Default i need advice on a package.

i have about $5000 to spend on a nice H/C package. My car is a 2000 Ws6 M6, and is not my DD so I would like an aggressive setup if it's doable in my price range! My current mods are FLP LT's, ORY, Borla cat-back, PP throttle body, Lid, shocks and springs, drilled and slotted roters, free mods, Tune, pro 5.0, drag radials, and other stuff i'm sure I am leaving out. I also and going to upgrade my intake.
Any suggestions of heads, cam, and intake would be much appriciated.

Just some rounded up numbers

AFR Heads 2400
Cam+extras 600
Fast 90 875
90 mm TB 375

That leaves 700 for a tune and miscellaneous stuff

98 redzones pretty close w/ his numbers, a lil high even if you check w/ sponsers they have discounts all the time.

i basically got everything in my setup done for less then that but i didnt go w/ such expensive heads. i also used the FS section here for alot of my parts.

biggest thing is shop around vendors once you decide what you want, they will work w/ ya in your price range n goals for the car.
