V50-T5 power upgrade

Hi to club members

For V50-T5 with 230ps, year 2009, front wheel drive.
Need some information about :

injectors cc
fuel pump lph
K04 part number

Read somewhere, with stage 1 tune, it could produce 250bhp and 400nm. With this stage 1 tune, could the original intercooler, injectors and fuel pump withstand the increased power?

If to retain using original intercooler, could i use Snow Performance water methanol injection to complement original intercooler ? In my place, ambient temperature range between 36c to 38c. Can feel the performance reduce, maybe due to heat soak.

I think water methanol injection could efficiently reduce the charged air temperature with quite good result and reduce knocking. Any cons of using water methanol kit? Or better use larger intercooler ?

Many thanks
