Stage 1 dinan plus what?

I just bought a tastefully tuned e90 n54.
20xxxkm on the engine and turbos 100k on body.
Dinan upgrades all done with new engine
-exhaust
-carbon cold air Intake
-stage 1 tune
-stage 1 suspension

looking into possible upgrades. From what I hear downpipes really wake up the car. suprisingly the CAI and exhaust keep the car pretty quiet. Im looking to build around 400hp not too loud (but louder). I plan on keeping the car as a summer toy for 10+ years so good parts and preventative maintenance are a must. I dont want any engine lights coming on I just want her looking and running like a dream.

Based on what I've read so far I'm thinking
-stock oil cooler (just bought) I live in calgary where it doesn't get so hot so I think itll be fine
-intercooler
-catted DPs
-charge pipe with diverter valves
- in the next year or 2 get a walnut blast and then oil catch can
- s2 or s3 dinan? does a Cobb or jb4 work over an s1 tune or do I have to have it reset before piggyback tune?

thanks for your input guys
