Default best spec for 450bhp

i know its been asked many times on here but i seem to find mixed reviews over the years.

seeings we are now in 2015 things have changed over the years & im looking for a good decent set up.

so far i have:

200 long studded block
new mahle pistons with valve cut outs
head is offf being ported
i have all the normal bits like 500 cooler, 3 bar, s/s exhaust etc...

but where do i go next?

im thinking 83lb seimes injectors

as for the cams atm i have a pair of bd10's fitted
whast the best set up for power with reduced lag
bd16 &??

regarding the inlet manifold i have a 4x4 set up atm, i was looking into hart manifolds but is this just a waste of money as people sem to just run a 14mm spacer?
again i see many spacers for sale from 10mm to 17mm, which would be better?

last but not least is the turbo!
my last set up had a tt t38 & i was more then happy with it, i can get hiold of a cr turbo t38, these dont have the anti surge housing or better exhaust housing that the tt one does but i have still seen people get over 500bhp on these turbos!

or do i go gt30??

mixed reviews again as i was thinking gt3071 with a .82 housing?
i have also seen tere is a .72 or .74 rear housing for the gt series turbo that enables the downopipe to bolt straight on (i like easy)

peoples opinions???

so to recap im looking for advice for:
cams
inlet
turbo


be gentle with me!
