  The X-ray free-electron laser, SACLA, is constantly operated for user experiments aimed at new science. Experimental users demand further experimental abilities, such as many experimental chances by using multi-X-ray beam lines, much better repeatability of the experiment conditions and further intense high-energy X-rays. To equip SACLA with these abilities in the future, we have developed a 2pi /3 CG acceleration structure with an acceleration gradient of over 45 MV/m to adapt operation for generating the intense high-energy X-rays. A high-voltage power supply to charge the PFN of a modulator, a klystron and an acceleration structure were developed to adapt operation for 120 pps operation from the present 30 pps, since 120 pps is more suitable for beam distribution to the multi-beam lines. To meet the experimental repeatability realized by stable timing in a pump-probe experiment, an optical-fiber length control system to mitigate timing drift below 1 fs for 10 minutes was developed. Highly precise cavity temperature control system in an injector for below ±2mK was also realized. Performances of our developed instruments were experimentally tested to be sufficient for our demands.
