No such thing as cheap power, its correct mods or incorrect mods, correct mods keep your engine safe, incorrect mods cost you a fortune.
So, budget wise, if you dont have the cash then dont modify, its simple.
At your stage, you can get around 270bhp, you need an uprated (good) fuel pump, look at doing something with the brakes and a remap (basic brake upgrade is discs, pads, braided hoses), remap is around £650 quid for your car, then budget for a hike in your insurance (quite alot of people forget about that increase), so 1k should cover most of it id say.
