I like the Brickboard because I learn something every day.

That is a nice performance gain, but it still won't become a pocket rocket. The torque is limited to 275 in 1st and 2nd because the torque converter can't handle it and will slip too much and burn out early.

The better exhaust will also help add another 10-15bhp, rerouting the intercooler lets pressure boost sooner.

But that is still a lot of money that I wouldn't spend on a car. I would rather spend the extra dollars and trade for a nice "R", which has the suspension to go with the extra power.
