Easiest mod is to have someone fab a downpipe and a 2.5" or 3" exhaust for you. Or you can skip the downpipe for now and just add the exhaust. Get a staight through mufler, not a chambered one. Stock exhaust manifold will work fine.

Installing a intercooler is a must if you plan on raising boost. You can grab a cheap one like a MKIII supra or volvo IC or spend a little more for a more efficient one like the NPR ICs. After you install an IC, get a $10 manual boost controller and up the boost to 10psi. You will feel a big difference. Bigger than any other mod you can do at this stage. After 10 psi, fuel is you limiting factor.
