Got some money, want some power+stick

Hey guys...not the first time I'm asking about this but this time I actually want to do something about it!
My parents are very unhappy with my motorcycle, so I'm selling. I'll have 8-10k for some upgrades to the SVX to keep myself from falling asleep on the road!

Right now I have three goals:
>Manual transmission
>~400hp
>a rear biased SVX!

For the manual, what should I buy to have a rear biased power distribution? Do the 04ish STI trannies handle 400hp? I don't want it to be bulletproof, just reliable enough at a cheaper price. Not going to be shifting and launching like Honda drivers!
I personally love Toyota transmissions...is a Toyota swap possible at all? (sry if it is a dumb question)

Power is probably the easiest to achieve! Will it need to be cammed for a single turbo?


Anything else?
Thanks
