Nice sounds like you're on the right path. Take time to get to know the car, but also figure out what you want to do with it. Highly recommend trying a track day/HPDE or autocross. It is addictive and if you get hooked (like a lot of people do), that will definitely influence how you mod your car. The money you thought you wanted to spend on power you might decide would be better spent on tires, brakes and suspension. Either way congrats and welcome!

Track days!
SCCA driving school - get your regional racing license.
Or buy a used spec miata and go race.

That is basically what I was saying, admittedly not very elegantly. They will cover you during your original bumper-to-bumper warranty for anything rejected by Toyota as being caused by the supercharger. Unfortunately, it doesn't cover the entire 60K drivetrain warranty.
