Default Info on mods for a type r

As above I am only getting into the swing of things with MY00 type r the next mod I was thinking about is Sti 8 top mount intercooler they seem cheaper than a front mount intercooler. What other mods could I do that wouldn't be over budget. I have the exhaust and shocks done and a apexi neo and avcr. I like a ecu upgrade if it was not over budget. I won't be getting all the mods in one go I space them out over the summer. Some Picts would be nice of your mods that will fit my type r. Any help would be great.

I don't like eBay even though I find lots of sccoby parts always have the seller with lots of info. I like these forms better. What is your opinion on walbro fuel pump can I buy one and fit it straight on without much bother ? They are some for sale for £50

I am going to get the car re mapped in a few weeks and I just want to add a few things to my list and see what bhp I will get I would like to see 350 bhp anything above will be a bonus. I have seen some front mount intercoolers going from £100 to £200 what's your opinion on these ? They are for 93 to 01 classic will one of the older ones work ok on the 00 type r?
