2001 9-5 Mods?

I have a 2001 9-5lpt wagon. I want to increase performance. What should I do? If I go with a “tuning kit” from Abbott or Hirsch do I also need to upgrade the intercooler? If so, does anyone know who makes a good after-market one, or should I try to find one off a junkyard Aero? Speaking of which, does the base 9-5 have the same turbocharger as the Aero? Also, How is the Saab sport exhaust, would I be better off going for an after-market one. Lastly, the car is the 4-speed auto. How much power can this transmission safely handle? How about the cars cooling system (not just the intercooler, but the engine cooling system: radiator, water pump, etc.). Any other mods that are relatively easy to do?
Thanks for the help!
