Hello,
Without wanting to stifle your creativity: if you're modifying other components, you'll inevitably need a software adjustment. However, if you simply want more power, a software modification can push the engine to its limits.
Install the parts that are included in the series, and have a (skilled) tuner give you a little more power, and if that's not enough, then upgrade to a 2.0. Everything else, in my opinion, is pointless tinkering
