Think you need to firstly decide how far you want to take the tuning, then run a few searches as the topic has been covered more times than a dinner table.

I've got a GT2860rs if you want to try mine out mate, only 255fly just now but hopefully seeing close to 300 with a remap and my boost controller set up.

Where in Wales are you?

Easiest would be use a CT20, any more and it usually gets very expensive. My brother ran a CT20 on his rev2 engined car with a Blitz access ecu and it went very well.
I've got a GT3076 on my rev1, last r/roaded at 391bhp but wouldn't like to add up what the car has cost me in total. It is a nice quick road car though.

Forget teh Blitz Access buddy. Not remappable. Basically just raises the revlimit and removes boost cut.

I f you want to do things properly in some logical order this package list from 3S gives a nice guideline to your route of upgrade. As mentioned above, if you have bigger hp targets in mind for the future then plan ahead maybe getting a more capable turbo early on. This will save you monry later.
