Have you considered getting this?
That's a bolt-on that needs no tune...
Other than that, all the info is already here, you just have to search... i'm afraid that nobody will spoon feed you

GReddy kit with a mazdamaniac upgraded turbo is the way to go. Esmeril is probly the best, but really expensive. Don't just get the GReddy base turbo kit unless you wanna rebuild your turbo in a year or less, the upgrade makes it way more reliable. But sounds to me like you havent done research or used that handy lil button at the top of the screen that says SEARCH. Most the people here will tell you that so how about you just do that next time

Oh man, don't get the flux capacitor.. I used that thing and ended up in 1882, then it broke! It's not very reliable.. Had to harvest some uranium to get it working again, and THAT is hard.
