there are plenty of different chipped ecu's available on ebay/yahoo japan etc. Blitz, mines, zero sport, prova etc all made them, they're generally plug and play and are tuned for fuel, timing, boost level etc. some may require minor mods such as 3" tb exhaust, larger intercooler etc but generally are ok to plug into a stock car. I had an Eifel chipped STI RA ecu in my car that was good for almost 200kw with a front mount, 3" exhaust and increased boost to 18psi. I don't know of anyone who's upgraded to a chipped ecu and has come to regret it.

i'd look into an electronic boost controller over a bleed valve. much more stable.
