i plan on buying a 98-02 Z28 or SS. So on a 98-02 ls1 camaro is the procharger D-1SC better than the vortech w/V-9 SQ G-trim w/ aftercooler. i also see that the vortech with a stock motor bumps up to like 448hp correct me if im wrong. i didnt find and stats on the procharger in HP range. which is better. i wanna get somewhere in the 550hp range. i know im goin to have to do everything forged but also what supporting mods r needed to get there and is there a better supercharger with a different setup. i was lookin at doin the FAST 90mm intake and throttle body and 60lb injectors. is it also smart to go with a stroker kit on this setup. i was looking at lingenfelter. wat kind of headers r the best along with exhaust system. ive looked at a lot of them and hear flowmaster borla magnaflow, just cant decide. also looking at doin a 12 bolt w/ posi. wat other suspension mods r needed. need input on this setup

Technically, boost is boost. You can get 10 psi out of either system. Just depends on which one you want. Some people don't like procharger because of its self-lubricating system. Its good because you don't have to tap for oil lines, but at the same time, the oil doesn't get circulated and given a chance to cool down.
As far as the stroker, more cubes is never a bad thing. You'll just want to watch your SRR (stroke-rod-ratio). If you go with too big of a stroke, then that puts extra side-load on the cylinder walls. And with boost, that's not a good thing. You'll be safe with a forged 383 setup though.
You want to go with full bolt-ons to get the most of your setup. If you're on a budget with headers, go with ceramic coated pacesetters; nothing's better for the price. If you want top-quality, then go with Kooks or QTP's stainless steel LT's. They will outlive the car. As far as exhaust, go with a true-dual setup from TSP. You'll also want to look into higher flowing heads with a bigger combustion chamber to help lower that copmpression a bit for more boost (as well as dished pistons). And a blower cam to match the blower and the heads.
If you want to get as much power as you can to those rear wheels, then you'll probably need a full suspension setup. I would also go with a full chassis setup too. Springs, shocks, sub-frame connectors, panhard bar, torque arm, upper and lower control arms...etc. You may need to fortify the tranny as well.

money is not an object because i want to do everything right the first time and my job allows me to say that about $. i plan on doing this whole setup over the winter as i live in iowa so yes we get snow but great time to break down motor and car and do everything i need in 5-6 months.

For the stroker setup, you can go many routes. Personally, I would look into Lunati. They sell stroker kits, so you don't have to guess and mix-and-match parts.
For blower cams and such, call Comp Cams and see what they have. They have a knowledgable staff to answer your questions and recommend some things.
Suspension/chassis, there are endless possibilities. Spohn, BMR, UMI, just do a search or pick up a magazine.

what r ur recommendations on suspension and is it smart to run a roll cage because if its a ttop it will twist the frame with that much power correct? this is gonna be a car that will probably be a street driven car for the most part

The sub-frame connectors will correct the chassis for the t-tops. SFC are a must for any t-top car.
I can't recommend anything because I don't have suspension/chassis mods yet. Paying for college and such limits my modding abilities. But if I came across some cash, I plan on going with UMI's full chassis setup.
Suspension-wise, I wouldn't mind Air Rides new system. Replace the springs with air bags. I've heard good things from them.
