I think Marco might be running a 2.14l. Eagles will hold 600whp. Will they hold 600whp at 10,000rpms? I don't know. You might want a dogbox tranny, if you plan on being able to shift at 10,000RPMs. You might want to use some Crower or Pauter rods. The cost of engine internals are going to be a small drop in the bucket compared to the rest of the parts need to get a DSM to make power at 10,000RPMS. DSMs are not VTEC Honda's, they don't keep making more and more power as you rev high and higher, they usually flatline not long at spooling up and eventually start falling. With the commonly used parts most 2.0ls start dropping power a little after 8000RPMs. With the 2.4ls it's more like 7000-7500. You should be able to make 600whp with even a 2.0l with a 75lb/min turbo and 35psi.
