i dont think so. not without spending alot of significant other mods. even then im not sure the k03 can manag that power.
larger downpipe and sports cat or decat plus a decent custom map should see you around those figures with good fuel..
But to sustain the power and get the most from it, a better flowing filter or induction kit and a fmic are ideally needed.
Better brake pads are a good idea too!

Pluss you will want to add a FMIC & Forge TIP to that mate
Full stage 2 requirements are:
High flow air filter
Forge TIP
Uprated DV
FMIC
Larger down pipe and decat/sports cat
Pluss a good custom map
To go for a hybrid you will need all the above pluss:
LCR/TT/S3 injectors & MAF
Pluss the actuale hybrid k03/s turbo (Turbo dynamics/CR Turbos etc etc) (circa £600)
Pluss a custom map (circa £600)
ps: stay away from the crap on ebay (T3/T4 mani's & turbo's etc)

tip wont improve figures over the exhuast imo... my 242bhp was only after changing the exhaust. Did mention the fmic
oem dv is fine only change if leaking.
Ok, so far I have:
Boost Gauge
Open cone air filter
Recirculating dump valve
Unknown remap
Next I should get:
FMIC
Full Exhaust System - what size is best? 2 1/2 inch ?
TIP - does this have to be Forge?

Intercooler would be a good bet to bring down intake temps.
My Exhaust is 2.5" I think
It doesn't have to be Forge no.
If you are going for an aggressive map you may need an uprated fuel pressure regulator.
Will these do:

TIP is not the correct one
Top exhaust is only 2.25" as I asked few months ago
Don't know anything about the other place although thats very cheap
Intercooler is same one a couple of people on here have used with good results.
60mm is not 2.5"? 63.5 is 2.5 I think?
To be honest I doubt it matters but I've never seen a 60mm downpipe most are 2.5"
