can the underdrive pulleys... they are really designed for racing so that the water pump doesn't spin too fast and have cavitation. You don't want to spin that alternator slower and produce even less voltage than they already do.
and really port the hell out of that wastegate. I still boost more than I'd like when it's cold and I've got a minor port job on mine.
Upgrade the radiator instead of just replacing the stock one. You'll want one later if you start running the car hard... and you gotta be careful with electric fans. Many of them don't cool as well as the stock clutch fan.
