I just did the cams and 58mm throttle body/Intake on my 09. No head work, head gaskets, and I have the worst performing pipes supposedly (V&H big shots 2:2) .
I have the woods 777 cam (It is downright impressive - only 0.15" higher lift but much higher duration), lifters and the screaming eagle adjustable pushrods. I am not sure about using the same push rods again to be honest. I would consider the S&S or something else. I am very happy with the cams. The lag off the line GONE. The classic sputter sputter and then off you go is gone. The having to shift down to pass is GONE. This mod made the motor run how it should have left the factory. Have not had it on a dyno yet and would love to see what it can do dialed in. I am pretty positive it is over your numbers you are desiring. I run with a guy with a bit higher numbers and he cannot keep up now.
Bad news.....everything on your bike IS NOT SCREAMING EAGLE. Just the motor. The spark plug wires, stock. The throttlebody, stock...it keeps going.
The heavy breather needs to be replaced if you replace the throttle body. I would say that if you want the cheapest bolt on parts to get there you will need:
Cams/Lifters/Rods
Throttlebody/Intake
Heavy Breather
Exhaust
Worth it without having to crack the motor!!!!
Total for mods ~$1800-2200
Stage 2 kit from HD is about the same - adding pistons will certainly get more hp but more work will be needed therefore more $
