number 3

imo better to run slightly more boost through a decent cooling setup than more through the standard i/c

None of these on their own is enough m8,

You could get a bigger /hybrid rebuild turbo but then you need a re-map, and to make the most out of any power enhancing mods you will always need a re-map, apart from the exhaust etc (which would still benefit)

Just my opinion.

Anyway enjoy spending

Thumbs up

I'd get myself a set of decent equal length headers. Smooths out the power delivery and will give you 15bhp and at least 20lb ft torque every time.

I think you should get the engines breathing right first as that just unlocks extra power thats already there before going on to modify/improve in other ways.

Pistons. Lighter pistons means you can rev higher for longer as it has less stress..
