Default Ideal 5.3L boost motor build?

I have a low milage stock 5.3 sitting in the garage i picked up last year to swap into a colorado, long story short project has been delayed so I figure I will build it for boost in the meantime

Any suggestions on what I can do to get some more power and make the engine more reliable at higher boost levels out of my 5.3. Turbocharged of course

if money was no object what would you do? (besides get a 6.0)

Forged 427 @ 9:1 compression with a MP2300 on top running about 25 psi.
