Regarding power based on mods: These engines are ecu controlled, so the map controls power. They are mapped to produce x-power by controlling the amount of fuel that goes in, so a map that claims Y-power will make Y-power regardless of what extras you install. The power is limited by the fuel input dictated by the ecu, that's the whole point of mapping it. A stage 1 map will not make stage 2 power just because you fitted an intercooler, a stage 2 map won't see 180bhp just because you've fitted a turbo, it's all in the fuelling. If you want to make more power you need it to be mapped.
I understand the whole point and will be talking to ProSteve About A Map For It. Was Just Wonder If Anyone Could Tally Up A Rough Estimate on power for the mods listed.
