Welcome along.. plans sound good.
Have a look what pump you have, first thing I would be doing is giving it a quick tune up. have a look for the guide on here.
If you or a mate is handy with a welder. a straight through exhaust can be made for literally a couple of quid by cutting open and gutting the boxes or removing them alltogether ( remember you need one box for legal reasons) and if you havent already got a decat id get one of those too ( not requiered for mot test ) And its an upswept tip you're thinking of.
With the rear disc conversion id look for someone selling an HDI or GTI-6 rear beam they can be had for under 100 quid and if you can find one thats already been lowered it saves you a job of lowering. and a beam change is a fairly easy job to do!
Intercooler options are pretty simple.. spend £££s on getting really nice setup, or lash together whatever you can find.. you dont need anything huge and again there are guides on here on what to look out for. but to be fair I was running about 180hp on a TD04 turbo and used the top mounted intercooler
Im presuming this is a ph2? is so the p3 bumpers are the best shout looks wise but if its a ph1 then dont change it!!! (my opinion that is)
quite a few turbo options available to you.. but ill let someone with a bit more experience tell you about them.. or you can just have a search for stuff like TD04 Gt2056 Gt2052 will bring up some relevent threads. but there really is endless lists that can be bolted on with a little mechanical know how.
Have fun
