Nothing wrong with that.

I'd say get an intake, shocks, gears/stall/mail order tune at the same time.

put the loot where it'll move your a$$

cold air, stuff a cam up in her, get them heads & intake off, port, polish, match; 1.6rr's, good headers, good exhaust, tune

sfc's can wait til like 500hp - wish I'd went this route; may be one thing to consider there, may be harder to get a few g's from the old lady in the future when there's crumbsnatchers running around all over the house than now.
do more expensive mods first.

I say go with exhaust because it will help an other mods you do later and more importantly it will make your car sound bada$$!

Well I installed the SFCS and STB today Man does though SFCS make a difference. I could easily tell that they tightened up my frame. I am getting CAI/373's for my graudtaion present from HS. This summer I will be working for Spring and shocks what kind of springs and shocks do you guys reccommend (sp)? I am going to my local bodyshop to get some paint match for my car so that I can touch up the areas on my SFCS where the welds are and where we had to grind a bit of the paint off so that we could weld them to the frame.
