Default Best way to spend money on mods

I have allocated another $15-$20k on engine mods and body kit to which I have already spent $20k. With that type of budget, what do you fellow members recommend for FI, camshafts, pistons, etc. For the body kit, I am going with Top Secret front bumbers and INGs side skirt and rear bumbers. I am looking to produce at least 400whp+ but more importantly is reliability and not too much complication.

Current mods:

Stillen full cat-back system and headers
RT hi-flow cats
Kinetix plenum
Unorthodox pulleys
Injen high air intake system
Volk 19" GT-C gunmetal
AP Racing big breaks 14.25" front and 13" rear
Tein flex coilovers w/EDFC
Stillen grounding kit
Aluminum pedals

Hey, I was just in lv last night at the speedway for the drag races. Did you go?

If it were me i'd go with a greddy kit and upgrade a few parts. There is a guy on here who made 406 rwhp. Maybe do a search or just look for his post. Sounds like he has the right idea.

I do reside in LV so if you know of anyone in this neck of the woods who do excellent mods, please let me know.

Factor X engineering is probably the best tuning/building shop around the Las Vegas area. I'm not sure if they have done much with the infiniti's but it is worth checking out. They have a website at www.factorxengineering.com

Thanks. I will contact them next week. However, I am not limiting myself to LV for a good tuner/mod shop. If anyone knows of some good ones around the L.A./Orange County area in So. Cal.
