Ride it for a few years, until aftermarket for the car is largely available.
Yuo sound like my mod list.

I know its blassifim(can't spell :s) but I will be waiting for either supercharger or turbo kits to come out.

Want it to look like this.

^^ id roll with that looks solid!
Wheels/tires, exhaust, Intake, coilovers/lowering sprigs(depending on availability) and front lip. It will be a thing of race inspired beauty

kind of a vauge question

it depends what your goal for the car is

I know dragon was talking about turning the ft86 in a track car years down the line

I may turbo but that will depend on the aftermarket kits vs sti motor swap

I sure do hope trd comes out with lowering springs... this car deserves a lower stance than what I'm assuming will come factory. I want the handling to remain the same, so no coilovers for me.

Anything you do from stock will change the handling... Lower will change its feel even if its just spring instead of coilovers.

How do you know you will like the stock feel when no one has driven it(on here)

Lower spring is not just for visual. For me, performance always more important than visual.
