Is there anything else, or any other way you guys may know what to do. My power range would want to be at approx. 350-400hp and it will be my daily driver. So please any kind of input would be very helpful. I would also want to know if I should machine it, or do really need to? Please help. It will be pushing boost.

...what engine do you currently have?
that's definitely a pretty hefty list to only make 350whp...
what are you going to be doing about fuel management?
how do you intend on installing new pistons WITHOUT machine work? at the least get the block and cylinders checked for roundness and taper. if your going with a metal headgasket, id expect you would definitely want to get the block and head machined as flat as possible for the best seal.
there are too many variables to really go on and on with your request. you need to give some more info.
what engine
what fuel management
what turbo / manifold setup
how much PSI
what kind of fuel
what compression ratio
ignition setup?
