Hello, I'm new here....I've been trying to figure out how best to beef up my 98 GT. Everyone I talk to tells me something different...I really need to know what is best bang for the buck? I want to make 400+ hp, what is the best path?

Forced induction turbo or super charged but youll need suspension and good tires to put that power to the ground

You will need a power adder, either a supercharger/turbo or nitrous. The cheaper alternative is nitrous.

My suggestion:
Complete PI swap
4.10 gears
150-shot

Dont forget the suspension high hp means nothing if you cant hook a proper set up suspension will do wonders you could have 400 hp and go nowhere and a 300 hp properly setup suspension will pull bus loads on you
