you could go along the Z4 ECU which will increase boost (so you can lose the boost valve), and provide a safe fuelling and ignition map which will suit the mods you've already done nicely.

Alternatively you could get an Apexi Power FC which will completely replace your existing ecu and will need to be mapped. The bonus of this is that you get a map tailored to your car, and this setup offers the biggest power increase.

You could get new cams, clutch + lightened flywheel, lightened pullys, forge pistons, port and polish or rebore? new drilled and grooved brakes for better stopping power or you could even get 50 shot of N02.

If your getting bored with it, why not try setting up a new sound system or change your engine hoses to samco? thats what I did with my honda when I got bored
