Default 400HP with 20g or 50 trim?

Hey everyone, you guys have been extremely helpful to me lately and I'm very thankful for it. After I got my 96'gsx up and running, I found a oil leak. I traced it all the way to the oil return pipe. I said to myself after I found it, wow what a good excuse to upgrade now! Currently when the I bought the gsx, it has turboxs MBC, injen intake, 3' exhaust from the down pipe, greddy turbo timer, boost gauge, and the seller told me the engine is now a 2.4L although he's not sure what has been done to make that happen.

I have been doing a bit of research on the 20g and everyone seems to say to go with the 50 trim instead. My goal by this winter hopefully is between 380-400HP. I am willing to drop no more than $6500 for this year to make that happen. Next year after after taxes we can talk more money but until then that's my range. Can you guys shed some light between the two so I can make the right decision? What are the supporting mods to go with either or setup?
