Default Seriously considering a STS for my 8.1L

I've always wanted to turbo my truck and think this best option for the money. I need to work out all the particulars of what to get and what I need to do. I plan on a upgrade turbo, meth kit, intercooler, and boost controller. I don't plan on running STS meth kit or boost controller. But I do need some suggestions on a good meth kit and controller? I already have 43# inj and I'm pushing them at 83% duty cycle now and its not tuned yet. Changing to bigger inj could be a big pain on this engine because of the fuel rail design. I assume 2 fuel pumps is a must? I'm suppose to be pushing 550+ FHP and it does run strong but like always I want MORE!!!!! I know, I'm a greedy bastard.
Any help here would be appreciated.


BTW, Is the exhaust loud for normal driving? This thing is a groundy pounder and gets way too much attention as it is. But it is fun to watch the mustang kids melt in their seat when I pull up next to them at a stop light.
