Default Buying and Modding a T5R

All, I have a few questions concerning the T5R.

I currently own a 280bhp GTI-R and am looking to buy a T5R due to additions to the family.

I would just like to know some specs:

What is the standard BHP?
Can the T5R engine be uprated i.e Boost,Exhuast etc...
What is the estates 0-60 time?
What is the estates max. MPH?
I heard from someone the traction control is poor?
What is the ride quality like?
How much would you pay for a 60,000 mile example?
Are there many good servicers and tuners in the M25?

Any info is greatly welcome.

Cheers

Ben.
