Upgrades

Hi all,
Am I starting to go mad or what..?
I have been thinking of upgrading a few things to something more durable, less weight and I suppose add a few named components to the Malt 4.
Currently have the following:
FSA SL - 280 seat post
FSA XC280 (31.8mm) bar
FSA OS170 stem (90mm 6 rise)
I was just wondering if anyone could recommend some good upgrades and why..?
Also, is the 31.8mm bar better than a standard one..?
Cheers
Marco

The OS bars are stiffer for a given weight.
My combination of lightweight budget parts would be:
Kooka Race stem (ebay): 20 quid, 126g. I run one its fantatstic.
