I think you got the right idea. You can buy a kit or piece it together yourself. There's plenty of people around here that have done one or the other.

Also, piggy vs ecu tune, it's up to you. Depends on what you want.

I don't know what you mean by "Turbo (PSI?)", your boost pressure is dictated by the wastegate. Unless you plan on big power (and I mean big), you'd want a 16G or equivalent turbo to keep the spool time down. A downpipe might not be needed but it's not a bad idea if your stock one is a major restriction. You would definitely need a tune or some means of tuning the car if you want to go turbo. Your best bet is to buy a kit from RRM since it will have everything you need.

5-7 PSI on a 16G is a good starting point.
