Default Whats a nice spec 3dr

As in engine spec obviously not talkin 400-500bhp (although an option later) but say 350ish with nice handling and lots of grip for gettin the power down? what about gearbox/diffs are they worth uprating at this stage?
Thanks

I went for a 500 cooler mongoose exhaust and a gunship from Karl, fitted uprated bushes and stiffer std height springs with new std ford shocks and 4x4 rear calipers with ebc discs, am well impressed with it only thing is am unsure what to do about front brakes so left standard at the moment don't know if to change to 17's and 330mm brakes or leave std wheels and just fit matching ebc front discs,
I think this is a good spec for a road car amazing response and pulls well,

Mines has a had a bit of work on the head , t35/55 , ally radiator , 500 cooler , uprated breather spec.r , 044 pump, konis , mongoose system, drilled grooved discs , stage 3 stuff really only running 14psi at the moment ,and can tell that once boost is upped it wil go fairly well , and handles nicely too not to hard not to soft ,t5 box will take a bit of a beating and at worst with some serious launching the diff might not like it but they an take stage 3 easy oh and clutch will probably die , mines is needing changed from a standard item to something a bit more beefier !
