Default Some advice needed please..........

My Escort RS Turbo finishes on ebay this saturday, IF the car doesnt sell, im looking at keeping it and throwing some money at the engine......At the moment the car has a piper 285t cam and is chipped(chip unknown) and a -31, im looking to get more power from the engine but im unsure how to do this(im no mechanic). Id like to achieve around the 230bhp mark, what do i need to do to get this ? Im thinking about changing the cam, getting the ECU remapped(if its possible), and having the head ported and polished, will i need to buy new pistons, con rods and get the bottom end balanced ? I have a budget of around £2000 is this enough or do i need to budget more ? id like to stay with the cvh lump. Can somebody give me advice on the best way to get 230bhp from my engine please
