welcome to the site! (moved post to welcome section)
best thing is to research alot before going out buying bits as one modification usually means needing another modification and so on!
Has your GT got an alarm? best thing to buy as a starting point!
Were down southampton quite often and have friends down with gt's/glanza sure you'll spot them!

front mounted intercooler
on the standard gt its on the top ( hence the vent on the bonnet to blow cold air onto it which cools down the boost from the turbo before it goes into the engine coz the colder it is the more oxygen and more power ...)
and a fmic will go across the bottom of your bumper its much bigger than the standard one and its a better position for it because hot air rises making the standard top 1 less efficiant
hope that helps
and also alarm is a must before anything else ! toad or clifford

autos in "manual mode" will stop at certain revs if you wanna rev higher thats what the "power mode" is for. My car is permantly in high boost and usually always in power mode
please make sure first thing u buy is an alarm many cars get stolen or at least attempt to steal them when they have no alarm.
My cars an auto too and please dont think the first thing you need to buy is a 'fmic' its not needed for your standard set up yet and its quite abit of hard work on the auto as you cant use the same pipework that manuals use.
Get your alarm, and then i'd suggest buying some braided brake lines and/or lowering your car. Autos in my opinion need a lil extra on the braking as your fighting the drive of the engine when you brake.
