Question Turbo Upgrades, Whats Needed??

I haven't picked up a TII yet, but will be doing so in about a month from a friend. I plan on buying a J-Spec motor from FC3S.org since my friends have gotten them and said they were great. I am doing this, because I plan on doing some upgrades to it, and its better than doing on a 100k+ engine. I am wondering what all I would have to do if I were to do the following. I plan on getting a different inner turbo trim for the stock turbo, bigger injectors, full suspension, wheels, different fuel system, intake, exhaust, upgrading the cooling system, and maybe a FMIC with custom dp piping, which will include a wastegate, manifold (custom if needed). If I were to go without the FMIC then I would probably not have to worry about custom dp piping, which will include a wastegate, manifold (custom if needed). With this, what types of HP numbers might I be pushing along with 1/4 times. I understand it would be a guesstimation, but I would like to know what numbers might be produced. Thanks.

All that jazz presuming your "different inner turbo trim for stock turbo" is just a compressor wheel and housing change, around 280-325.

You also forgot a method to control all the extra fuel you'd be dumping in there.

So with what you slightly added, would I be fine with the things that I have listed then? Or is there anything else to be needed?
