Hybrid Turbo or BT

Hi i have a Leon Cupra 52 plate and at the moment i'm undecided on what to go for and need some help. Was thinking about having my K03s turned into a hybrid one, having my new exhaust manifold installed (Tig-Art tubular) and then getting a new ABD intake manifold (from Awesome-gti) with other supporting mods that are required but not sure if it would work out better to go BT now.
Obviously going BT would mean changing lots of parts that i have already uprated like TIP, CAI, new manifold waiting to be instsalled, new maf etc so not sure what to do.
My biggest worry is that if i spend the money on a hyrid K03s and eventually want more power is it money wasted but i'm not sure if i'll want more power lol.
At the moment i have a full turbo back milltek system with custom made de-cat, Forge silicone hoses, Forge front mount, DV007p, BMC CAI, TIP, Audi R8 oil cap :) more mods but can't think of them lol, i've had it mapped with Jabba sport and got 242Bhp on the RR. I'm really happy with the way the car drives but think more power would be nice, so what do you people think Hybrid or BT?

A hybrid KO3 will give you 280BHP, then you'll get bored and start thinking about BT
Go for a smallish Garret, like a GT28R and get 310BHP easily with big smiles for miles
