You will need to hike the fueling to avoid running lean with the extra boost. Best advice is take it to a pro for a boost control and a remap, for peace of mind and probably better more reliable output

Leave it alone. DIY boost alterations are a good way to get landed with an expensive bill!

Have it professionally remapped if you want more power. When you say exhaust, do you mean a decat one? That should see you to about 260-280. Beyond that and you'd need to do more extensive changes.
