Default Replacing & Upgrading Consultation C30 T5 2012

Hi,

Quick recap regarding current status:

Half a year ago I bought the car, and immedietly sent it to the garage. That garage visit cost around 3k$(mind you that the car pricing is around 15k here in Israel).

They fixed and replaced alot of things, but the main things were: refurbishing right axle, replacing balance shaft(not sure it's the right term), tie rods, shock absorbers, motor mount, tyres, timing.

Also, oil change 2 weeks ago.


Now, at this point I have some budget to invest in the car, and I'd like to use this budget wisely.

My main target is replacing/upgrading stock components, assuming they haven't been changed for a long time. Secondary target is mildly tuning.

Budget is around 1500$-2000$.


here's my current list of things:

fuel filter 20$

air filter k&n 50$

cabin filter 30$

spark plugs bosch iridium 40$

ipd 120154 - 115$

blow off valve GFB T9354- 200$

icarsoft vol 1.0 - 160$

greddy profec - 350$

elevate software - 750$



I'm pretty sure that I'm missing some key components which are far more important than a boost controller(which is my secondary target).

What would you change in that list to make the car run smoother and better?



Best Regards,
Arkady.
