You will get alot of responses to that, but you will get ten times more if you can list what you have, what has already been done, and what you want to do with it or use it for. Let me be the first to tell you though that you need to do some reading up and use the search feature because others have already asked the same question so the answers are out there.
Also you will need gauges installed if you want to make power the right way. It is easy to mess something up and gauges are cheap insurance.
Give us a little more detail and you will get some good answers. Also what does your budget allow?

the most power added there would be by a chip, removing the stock downpipe and adding a good 3 inch roundere is good, and eliminate the cat as well

between 1-2000 your best bet is a smaller exhaust housing on your turbo.
