turbo upgrade recommendations ??

I want to be able to maybe gain about an increase of about 80 to 110 hp more out of the 2.0 and I'm wondering how much potential that can be made safely? Please help.

You may want to look into how Mercedes AMG created the CLA45 and GLA45 motors (Engine Code is M133, vs our M274). My understanding is that the base motor is similar but the AMG models have a twin screw turbocharger pushing 26psi with forged crankshaft and pistons, and a different aluminum block. Also they have different intercooling and a host of other differences as well. The M133 makes 355 HP though which is 114 HP more.

Some interesting info in this article:

Thank you so much I'll start my reasearch and go from there. And yes I understand I'll probably get flamed on about it because oh why not switch and get the c43.... not looking to bump in payment and put more down. I don't have it like that. Just someone looking for a bit more power. I've seen some mods as the piggy back ecu, exhaust systems for more increase power.
