Default Solid advice needed

Hi Guys

Newish Scooby owner Here and need some advice on what to do next.

Handling has been done already so I’m looking at performance.

Car is a 5 Plate Blob WRX PPP putting out just over 260BHP

I’ve got around a grand to spare and want to use it wisely so I need some good solid advice as I’m not sure where to start.

I had thought about Gauges and Brakes tell me if I’m wrong.

The plan is to take this baby to the Nurburgring in October.

If you can do some of the work yourself,
Brembos, Decat and remap.
Injectors etc can be done and remapped again cheaply enough later.
