I would do the TPI swap, but you can boost the CFI with some work. JOBY, a member here, has added an SC to his CFI vette, but it looked like a lot of work was involved.

You can go turbo or SC. Depends on your preference really. TPI will make the forced induction a lot easier.

If you are swapping doing the work of swapping out the CFI, then go bigger than TPI. Look into the HSR or a modified LT1 intake.
