Do you have a drawn out plan for your mods?
-What's your peak HP goal?
-Where do you want the powerband?
These answers are important, so you don't buy useless/counterproductive parts or parts that are the wrong size. You don't want mod A working against what mod C wants to do, you'll end up back at zero.
Ixnay the fuel rail if you think it's gonna add power. It'll make your engine bay prettier, but that's it. Useless on an all motor setup. Ignition systems don't help much for all motor either

Woah, 400 HP? No chance of that with bolt ons. FI is your only hope. I assumed when you said you're getting I/H/E, you were going all motor.
Turbo'd Tegs want a 3 inch exhaust, NA cars want 2.5 inches MAXIMUM.
I wouldn't bother with a header or an exhaust now, save the money for the turbo. I'd get the turbo system first, and run it with the boost down enough so the stock internals can handle it. Then get a big 'ol downpipe, high flow cat and a turbo exhaust, then build the internals. I don't think you'll wanna be driving around with Turbo mods (3 inch exhaust, turbo pistons, turbo cams, ect.) for any extended legnth of time on a not yet turbo'd engine, the car will be a freakin' DOG and you'll hate it.
