Welcome, As long as your new engine is of the same displacement and the original fuel set up is used injectors and fuel pressure regulater etc. Then there is no need for a remap but on your year of manufacture you require a newer or aftermarket ECU unless upgraded. As not mappable other than means of a chip. Fit a Air/Fuel ratio gauge to check mixture is correct to be safe if still unsure.

Explanation mark indicates low brake fluid level.
As for power increase purchase a larger intercooler STi top mount and a Z4 later addition ECU this would see you good for 280BHP. You would need 440cc yellow injectors to replace your 380cc injectors if you change the ECU.

320bhp= Apexi power fc, better tmic (late model STI) bigger injectors (550cc),Uprated fuel pump, possibly uprated FPR.
Z4 cannot be remapped but does have an extra port to plug a chip (scoobyecu or esl).
