$1500 to spend.

I've got $1500 to spend on my car, I currently have a TBE. What do you guys suggest I get? I was going to use this $1500 to mod my car further, without a tune. And get a tune later, after I have all the parts I want. Instead of having to re-flash it consecutively. Opinions, Gentlemen?

My plan was similar. Injen Intake, Triple Guage Pod, Guages for it(obviously), TurboXS MBC, TurboXS BOV, and Walbro. Does the walbro increase power much? Or is it just an efficiency item?
