A cheap EGT gauge ($65, probe included)
A cheap intercooler
A modern variable vane turbo (Dropped my EGTs ~80°F
A straight pipe (dropped my EGTs ~100°F)
Maybe put in an oversized oil cooler as well?
If you go with a 2056V I have a print of my adapter somewhere on PP, print it out 1:1 and start drilling.
