Welcome. Rust will be a big concern on cars that age. Rear arches are highly likely to be on the way out. Bear in mind they rot from the inside out so if any is visible then alot will be hidden behind it, don't be fooled by someine claiming it's only the odd bubble of surface rust.

2.5 hg is a full rebuild job. Anyone saying anything else I would question their knowledge.

Always advisable to remap an import, need to run it on 99ron, vpower or Tesco. Best bet give a tuner a ring and have a chat with them, they will be able to advise on how to go about it and costs

Changing the exhaust will change how it sounds not just the volume level, so it Sounds like your just getting more noise from the turbo. If its been checked out then I would assume that's what it is and just keep on ear on it to see if it changes.

Should be ok on the 5 speed at that, the hawk 5 speed onwards is alot stronger. I ran 400/420 on a hawk 5 speed for 10k miles no issues.
