Default 6.0l modification reccomendations

I have a 2003 ford that I bought that has a bad turbo and doesn't run, I am making this pickup into my play toy! I was wanting to be running about 550-600hp once I get it finished. I was just wondering what all you guys would recommend to do to the truck to reach that goal but also make it reliable. What I was thinking was powermax turbo with batmowheel, maybe 205cc injectors, 58v FICM, heavy duty HPOP(I am not sure if this is necessary or not, what options do I have for aftermarket HPOP, if I should need), head studs, egr delete. Please give me as much feedback as possible on previous upgrades. I also want to know whether I should go with a FASS fuel system of airdog and which make and model? I also want to buy a SCT tuner capable of quite a few different programs, what would you recommend for that and who would be good to send it to get programs put on it? Would a cam and lifter kit be worth the money? I was also gonna do a oil bypass kit as well as a coolant filtration kit. Sorry for all the questions! Thanks for all of the feedback!

Fuel lab has a new fuel pump system that looks awesome! I just saw at the XDP show. The guys who heavily mod run fcustom fuel lab pumps but now they do the filter and pump setup as a unit. I was very impressed with the quality of the unit on display. I have seen a billet oil pump for our older motors, would like to get more on that myself. I'm near innovative so I will be getting Eric's tunes when I eventually bite the bullet and mod more. I always like watching these builds and learning what these guys have found that works so looking forward to updates!

Well I have never done much modding myself, I am a poor college student that is saving up money to do all of these mods. I have my daily driver that I have done injectors and stuff like that on. But when I get all of the stuff I want for the truck I am just gonna pull the motor and do it all with the motor out. I talked to a Komatsu mechanic that said pulling the motor is fairly easy so once I get it out will do all of the modding, maybe even paint the block and throw it back in.
