1. Catless up-pipe
2. Turbo-back exhaust (catless or 1 cat, your environmental choice)
3. EcuTek reflash (doing 1 and/or 2 without this is almost pointless)

Your car will feel completely different.

4. Tires

Your car will feel completely different again.

Leave the intake and intercooler alone.

Drive.

or you can get a BOV and FMIC, look "cool" and probably be slower.. both the same price.

Very true!

The only IC upgrade i think that is needed for the amount of power on a mostly stock car would be IC hoses. Other than that i would have to say go with the up-pipe, TBE ,and ECUtek.
