    Woops, thought it was a 3.1. Go ahead and mod the engine, lad!
    Always nice to add a sub in to fill out a system, though.
    Brighter headlights are great for safety.

    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    Upload your photos to photobucket.com then use the img tags to post them here.

    As far as performance goes it depends what your goal is with the car. There are tons of visual items you can do to change the look of your car. I'd suggest some wheels to start with then move to the brakes and suspension portion of the car.
