sounds like you have the basic idea of whats required for power. your engine builder should be able to tell you what power range the engine he built can handle.

340kw is a lot of power so the other comments have been correct to address other parts of the car like suspension, drive train and reliability mods.

if you have taken care of those and still require more power then the formula is basic

if your engine is strong enough

more fuel (injectors, pump)

more air (turbo)

= more power

so bigger turbo, bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump, then retune, repeat for more power.

Drive and enjoy it for a while, and decide what you feel like you are missing most - handling, power, response, or maybe something else turns out to be amiss. Often the next steps from where you are end up with unplanned reasonable amounts of down time and there is no point having that downtime if you aren't working towards where you want to be :/

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
