Default question about engine upgrade>>>?

I been thinking about beefing up the mill on my 2003 SE-Deuce. It came from the factory with a 95" engine, and 203 cams w/flat top pistons, and a comp ratio of 9.5:1 IIRC. I bought it used with about 3700 miles on it, and it still had the stock exhaust and only a stage-I intake and stage-1 DL. I have since installed a set of V & H Big Radius pipes w/Big City Thunder "Thunder Monster" baffles. Taylor "Thunder Volt" plug wires, NGK iridium plugs, A SERT, and a good dyno tune. I am at about 94Hp/98Tq, and the bike pulls hard as hell, but I want a bit more. So I was thinking about installing a SE 103" kit w/cnc ported
heads and 211 cams...and a new set of clutch plates and heavy spring.
Has anyone here done anything like this to a SE model w/95" engine. If you have please list exactly what you did and what your results were. I am sitting on the fence though, because I dont want to mess with the stock 95" engine on a limited model(if you dont know it even has a 100th anny badge cast right into the engine case). I dont see me selling this bike any time soon (its way too nice & fast)...its exactly the way I want it, but for a few more ponies. What I am saying is I dont want to hurt the resale value.....just in case I decide to dump it one day.

Anyhow, thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me.
