If 04 is commonrail, you can do quite a bit with a tuner. Auto or manual?
If its pre commonrail, nozzles first then rocketchip tuning.

The stock intercooler is a bit small. He will or has recognized already a power lack during the hot summer months.
There are plenty of huge upgrade intercoolers available to provide better air cooling.
eg.: Forge

More air + fuel = more power.
