Any other great mods before I go FI?

I am trying to find more performance upgrades. I currently have what is in my sig and I am going FI (vortech T trim supercharger) here in about a year or so. Rebuilding my block, water/meth injections, 800cc injectors 300lph water pump and a few other things to yield 450plus whp but until I can save enough for all of that is there any other mods I could add while I wait? or should i just save the money until i can rebuild my block.

Also I like the quietness of my stock clutch but feel like with all those upgrades I should get a high performance one and a lightweight flywheel. does anybody have experience with any good clutch and flywheel combos??

Acceleration, handling and braking.
The 3 major things IMO that define a sports car. Upgrading just the power while leaving everything else stock isn't the best way to go. A BBK might be over kill for you but if your planning on accelerating faster then you should probably have the ability to slow it down quicker as well. What about putting that power to the ground effectively, tires? An external oil cooler probably wouldn't be a bad idea either. And I doubt the stock clutch will last very long.

a lightweight pulley would just be a waste of money since im getting a supercharger in the future and will have to put a different back on. but yeah i was thinking about getting a bbk i just wasnt sure if there were any other performance mods i could get ahold of before i go fi. yeah i figured my stock clutch wouldnt last with the hp i am trying to achieve but im not sure which clutch i should go with. act seems good and most people reccomend that one but i dont have any strong reviews yet.
