Stock brake pads and Motul RBF 600 have worked fine for me for lapping days so far. I'd also try to dial in as much negative front camber as possible... not so much for the handling benefits but more to preserve the outer shoulders of your front tires.
All other performance-oriented mods, as others have said, are not necessary at this point. For your first few outings, although no one wants to admit it, the limiting factor will be the driver, not the car.
Despite all the complaints you hear about the 1er's shortcomings as a track car, it is still an immensely capable car.
