fitting a 20xe next week not sure if I can afford the samco hoses so do I go for them and push the boat out even further or do I get bonnet struts and a strut brace to help with suspension

Strut brace won't make much if any difference to your handling.
Get the hoses whilst the engine is out of the car.

Have a look on www.migweb.co.uk for a user called turbo chris
He sells compleate silicon hose kits at a good price.
My Cav gsi set (9 Hoses) cost me £150
As for strut brace it does make a difference when changing directions fast.
On my 16v nova it helped loads when on the track doing fast corners
