Your car runs a TD04 turbo, its tunable to around 270/280bhp, i would check with your insurance co before modifying though as most are quite reluctant to let you do so or hammer you with large premiums.
I would also look at other parts of the car before tuning the engine, a remap will cost you approx 650+vat, though you can enhance the brakes with different discs/pads which would be a start, but again, insurance dependent.

I agree with what Tony says. Many of the stock parts are close to the safe limits and uprating any one component can require others to be brought up to suit. On my WRX PPP I have been told that anthing done to improve induction may result in the injectors struggling, bigger injectors would require the fuel pump uprating. Then the exhaust would need work, plus a remap would become essential. Once you start it's hard to stop.
I prefer to focus on making the already decent power more useable, by improving the suspension and brakes. After all, power is nothing without control.
