Building 500hp

Hi folks,
After lurking on the forum for some time learned a lot, and got a build underway at a local shop over the next few days.
Wanted to share excitement of significant build and happy to get any advice from the pros here, on current state and next steps.

What I drive:
2008 135i - N54, 6-speed, cabrio.

Currently on the car:

- Catless
- JB4
- VRSF Chargepipe + Tial BOV
- Cone intakes
- Maintenance up to date (Walnut blasting, etc..)

Getting installed:

- VTT Stage 2 (625hp max rating)
- VRSF High flow inlets
- VRSF 2" Outlets
- VRSF 7.5" Race intercooler
- Stage 2 Fuelit / Walbro low pressure fuel pump
- 2 -step colder 97506 plugs, Bosch coils
- Gaskets, fluids, PCV valve...

Thinking of running map 5 for a while, eventually doing a custom tune.

Cheers!
