Don't go with a highly resonated dual system if you're planning to go FI...you will regret it.

I agree with everything in your post except for this. If you're not planning on going FI for a while then an intake would be great! I picked up a K&N FIPK for my 02 and boy what a difference! It give much better throttle response in the mid range and the sound is awesome! I think a cheap (as in inexpensive like the K&N) intake is an awesome "bang for your buck" mod. It cleans up the engine bay, gives you a little bump in power, and makes the car sound like it's eating souls at WOT.

Best bang-for-the-buck performance upgrade is to upgrade the driver: HPDE days or outright driving school (Skip Barber, etc.)

Exhaust and Intake, then suspension and breaks.
breaks? I would not recommend he add breaks, those will hurt overall performance. Now brakes on the other hand, are not a bad option.

Best bang for your buck mods:

Tires
Suspension
women
