you need a dawes device, a boost gauge and a set of detcans at the very least.
should be able to go to 1.1bar which will next you about 25bhp

Fit a full de-cat exhaust. Should see a pony or two.

just buy an off the shelf chip its cheap and much safer than messing around like your gonna do,did my 95 wagon and was showing 242bhp 236ft/lbs with good afr. chip was £150.

Get a sports car/decat then take it to a mapper that can do a custom map on a ESL board for you.....much safer with better gains.
