Thanks in advance for any input you can provide.

I highly doubt you can reach that with bolt-ons on gasoline. Modern engines are pretty optimized. This engine in particular is pretty optimized. Most of the gains that you can get are either by breaking smog laws that engineers have to abide to or switching fuel.
getting 10-15% increase in hp na without rebuilding and revving higher requires >10-15% increase in torque. Getting a torque on 2L from 156->170 on pump gas is reaching like porsche levels.
