If you look at getting the head done, i can reccomend Fishhead on this forum ;) works with mike at gt turbo spares, some pictures of work on the website.

Your profile says you have a standard turbo and boost pressure... I'd forget headwork until your running a bigger turbo, better intercooling, tweaked fuelling and more boost. ;)
