Having done these types of project cars many times, here is my advice.
Buy car and drive stock for a few months. Then upgrade one thing at a time so you can feel or not feel the difference. If its just a DD and some spirited driving, the stock suspension may be fine. Probably get better tires, that makes the biggest difference.

As for power - I would do a stage 1 plus exhaust of your choice depending on noise level, drive awhile then stage 2 with a header (UEL for subie rumble and low/mid torque, EL for HP.) After that maybe FI - supercharger or turbo.

This could take years or months depending on how crazy you get. The mod bug is a terrible disease and many of us are afflicted.
