intake and exhaust (if you don't mind the sound)..
that's about it, otherwise turbo or swap it.

i would start off with suspension before anything... lowering springs, strut bars, etc

Stock. Go with suspension and wheel / tire upgrades and call it a day.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
