Welcome to the site! Easiest way to get a bit of gain would be High Flow Cats or Test Pipes if you live in a place that doesn't smog check. Intakes & Exhaust don't add much but combined with an Ecutek or Uprev tune you can squeeze a bit out of these VQ motors.
As far as lowering, a popular mild drop coilover that is a good price are the Tein Basis Z sets, they use the OEM upper mounts and don't have damper adjusters but can be had for about $500 shipped, the Tein Flex Z is about $300 more if you want damping adjusters. Depending how low you go will determine if you need aftermarket camber arms and rear toe bolts. The rear kits are almost always required and the fronts would be a good plan if you drop more than about 1.5".
Hotchkiss sway bars would be a good part to add to your list too.
Hope that helps & glad you found us.
