IM/TB are definitely big restrictions for you right now; focus on those before upgrading the turbo any further. Scratch the idea of small brakes, those are really for drag only since you get one good stop out of them. I wouldn't feel comfortable on the highway with them. My friend down here with his 2,250 lb. VIII autocross car runs the AMS Wilwood drag brakes and he said no way in hell would he track with them since they heat up too quickly...and that car is over 1k lbs. lighter than yours. 2-piece rotors and an aluminum driveshaft would be good ways to drop substantial rotational mass though.
