Made some updates to the wishlist with the recomendations given by everyone. I'm still researching if I need a front pipe/mid pipe with this setup, and what type of winter tires to use on the stock wheels. I'll update once I get an idea. I hope this helps other newbs like myself that wishes to invest time and money into this car. All this research is to build a fast but reliable setup without messing with the engine internals. I know if I want to max hp past 350, I'll need a built engine or swap it out completely. Thank you all again for the links and advice on what to do.
Edit: I forgot to ask if anyone knew if it would be a bad idea to do multiple tunes. I was thinking about breaking up the upgrades into different stages. Delicious Tunning offers different tunes. I was thinking about doing one of each tune I think I would need over time. I'm not sure if that would mess up the cars response or if each tune wipes out the other.

Ah, makes sense.
Also, looks like the exhaust comes with a mid pipe. I would just need to replace the frontpipe. I'm looking at the JDL Ultraquiet frontpipe. Looks like that would suit what I'm looking for. |

Are you sure 265/35/18 doesn't rub? I have 255/40/17 RSRs that run wide on mine, and I definitely rub the bumper tab. |

Rubbing bumper tab depends on wheel specs as much as tire width (and brand). I had 255/35/18 MPSSs on 18x9.5 +42 and had zero rubbing. 1.5* camber up front and near 2* out back, from what I remember.
I sold my BRZ so I can’t provide any recent specifics, but know that trimming the tab isn’t difficult and fitting 265s at 9.5 wide and +40 is relatively easy. PS i’m selling a ton of BRZ parts so hit me up if you want a list :p #shameless
