I mean i don't know if they are the best , i know they are no "Stop-Tec" or anything but people say they are alright . alot of the things i plan on up grading are smaller things that really don't cost much but its pretty much my christmas list some of the others are :

-- Apexi Auto Turbo Timer + EVO Plug & Play Harness COMBO!
-- B&M Short Shifter Non Adjustable and 8pc Stiff Shifter Bushings Kit Metal
--Defi D Black Boost Gauge + Autometer Single EVO Gauge Steering
--C-West Eyebrows 2pc-Lancer EVO
--Taylor Battery Relocation Kit

None of them will void my warranty and plus eveywhere else you turn you have to reflash your computer and then BAM, no warranty.

Aux, I would recommend not doing those mods just because they are cheap and don't void the warranty. In the end, you will only have one very useful item, and that's the steering column pod w/boost gauge. Definitely do that one, and do it first. The rest are really not necessary, and PLEASE GOD DO NOT GET EYEBROWS. Keep in mind that you have an Evo - it is a STREET LEGAL RACE CAR WITH AN AMAZING HERITAGE. We are not SRT-4 neons, all of which put on eyelids the moment they drive off the showroom floor. Also, do not relocate your battery...that will almost definitely void parts of your warranty, if not all of it. The short shifter is ok, but really not helpful unless you plan on racing frequently (same with the brake lines).

You only have to reflash your ECU for an intake or for the bigger mods (cams, alky, etc). You can easily do an exhaust and not have warranty or tuning issues. If you're like me, you can also do a JDM MR DV + MBC to gain some good power along with the exhaust without voiding your warranty as long as you uninstall them before going to the dealer.
