OK this is my goal...for now : 350-400 safe WHP

I have a 2006 WRX TRwith 5k miles and a blowen ring/piston. one of the two.

I have about $4000-4500 to spend on a set up AND install.

I am gonna have PDX do the install.

I know I can get power package heads later on and install em with the motor in the car, so ill save the heads for later.

My main question is:

What and where should I get my short block from and what should I do to it to make it safe for my goal.

This is what I was thinking :
-Stage 1 short block from COBB ( good price .BUT i dont know how much the shipping would be). And would the pistons in that set up be good enough.??
- have PDX install it

Thats what I had in mind SO far.

PLEASE give my your thoughts and ideas !!!

thanks alot
