Need an upgrade from FL Studio for audio recording

Hey everybody! I am a high school kid, with a fair amount of recording experience with bands, acoustic projects, orchestra's, and internal instruments. My school has a really great recording program with macs that run logic pro. Unfortunately, I do not have the money to buy a mac computer for my home, so I have been running FL for 3 years or so.

$3000 to spend AKG414 / dbx - what to upgrade?

I have $3000 (maybe a little more) that I'm going to use to upgrade my mic or preamp...or both. Considering that I have the following, what would you recommend I upgrade, and to what?

KEEP IN MIND THIS IS A Mic THAT WILL BE USED 95% FOR RAP!

AKG 414
dbx 286A

Basically, how will I see the greatest improvement in my ending vocal sound?
