550 Hp??

I don't want to cause a war, but I want to know a proven combination to make a somewhat reliable 550 HP daily driver. Obviously I need a clutch, but will I need anymore tranny mods? Sig does not show it, but I do have a BDDL, and gauges. I still have the older extreme load, no crazy larry yet. Stock air box, and straight piped, other than that, it is stock. Is this possible with stock turbo?

lift pump, turbo(at least 62/14, sps or silver would be better), clutch, intake, studs.

Its pretty tough to get into the 500's on a stock turbo. It takes alot to break that magical number. I would make sure that you do all the supporting mods first (lift pump, studs, clutch etc) then go for the power. It is a lot more fun when you add lots of power and it dosent break on ya

it was fairly easy for me to make that power just a set of injectors and a smarty and i was at 555 hp, the only thing else that would help would be a clutch i feel i could have done better on an aftermarket clutch. but i know of one other person who did 561 hp with the exact same setup but now pusher pump and he had a clutch. all on stock turbos and cp3s.
