Default Need to replace Turbo, Why not upgrade?

So here is the deal, I am not really ready to try and push a lot more HP out of this stock motor, but over time there are several upgrades that I have planned:

hard-piped IC
3" EX
some fuel management and injectors
AF head gasket
and a few others...

but in the mean time I need to replace turbo, I also need to pull ex man, it is leaking, possibly from stud issue.

So is there any reason not to replace with aftermarket, turbo, ex man, bov and a boost controller. As long as I am careful too not push, I assume I can wait on the remaining upgrades, but do not want to waste my money on a bunch of OEM products that I will want to replace anyway.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Also, I assume converting to oil cooling vs coolant is not a major project?
