The first 3 times yes. After that I was just to busy had a shop do it for me. When I was on a stock block yeah I did everything. When I went 2.4 had the shop do it cause of my busy schedule. I am just finishing up everything on the new build now and waiting to get tuned but with this stupid virus going around makes things harder.

I did the same thing you are.
I made 430 on stock turbo then went ***** deep sleeved / fully built top to bottom
Main thing you'll need is a proper fuel system and turbo
What turbo are you planning on using ?
also slot of ppl forget is the proper tools to do the job
micrometers, dial bore gauges , ect.

If this was an evo 8 or 9 I would say Fp black supporting mods all day long. But for an x I am sure others will tell you more then likely sleeve the block, pte turbo, smaller borg turbo, or any other turbo you may like that will support that hp level. I would do 1600cc injecors for a little headroom, speed density, build that head with good springs and retainers, GSC or Kelford 272 cams and thats about it really.
