Your biggest issue if you want go for bigger turbo is gearbox,you will need 6 speed or PPG plus clutch and from this i would go for turbo etc.
For 2.0L i would go with SC42/SC46 or Harvey 20G
650cc injectors
FPR something like Aeromotive,FuelLab
Harvey selling HDi FMIC which are proven and good
No at least i would invest money to brake,OE 4pots are not the best for New age,Brembo or K-Sport will be in my view best solution

Groan, do you expect your nine year old suspension and brakes to cope with 400 bhp ?
Upgraded STI brakes, and probably coil-overs as a minimum.
Then stick some bigger injectors in, no need for the FPR swap then, FMIC is good when heading past 400 bhp.
Turbo depends on your budget.
All IMHO.

P.S. You will need to budget for an uprated clutch too !

amazing to think of the money people spend to get their wrx to 400bhp mark isnt it ? and these i believe would be good prices ?
brakes £800
coilovers £600
turbo £1000
6spd fitted £ 3500 ??
clutch fitted £ 600 ??
intercooler £400
fpr £200
and then pay for it all to be fitted and mapped !!!!! shiiiiit !!!!!
didnt realize it would be around £8000 !
maybe i should concentrate on brakes ?

As you are said get good brakes with coilovers,some ARB's and Droplinks and you have nice car there.
