upgrade on a stratocaster

hi! I have an stratocaster ( probabily luthier made, I won it on a drawing ), and I'm thinkin about and upgrade on her, the wood is ash, the neck I dont know, but dont seems to be a very good wood. I dont like the noise on extremes of the key, so i'm thinkin about a diMarizio in the neck, a humbucking for blues.

what you guys think thats better for me? I have 2 years of guitar playin but my teacher sucks, so i'm not that good.

Please gimme a hand ;]
thanks anyway, and sorry for the writin, Im brazilian

What is the name on the headstock of the guitar? Can you upload a pic? If it has the standard 3 single coil pickups, you will need to have the bridge pup hole routed or buy a double stacked single to fit in the existing hole.
