aut cooling plate would help when tracking the car, a tuning unit; aem, greddy, k-pro. hum, test pipe, short shifter, 8 pound flywheel, better brake pads, gears and i guess i replace all the valve springs and retainer bc of your avatar pic. lol just kidding nice pic, btw how did you get yours to say "999" mine only does "288?"

a computer will definitely help! not sure what you are asking about the stock ecu? yes, the stock ecu will adjust itself to the intake and HEADER, singular 
, but in the bad way. with the stock ecu you wont be able to get a lot of whp from the intake and header. to get the most out of the bolt-ons, exhaust, high flow cat, intake, and if you get one, header; you will need to get a tuning unit. you could go all out and get a k-pro or aem ems, a step down would be greddy ultimate, a step down from that would be a vfac.
also something nice to have would be coilovers.

Aren't you guys a bunch of comedians aye lol.
Computer - sounds good, where's a good place to start looking, im not going turbo or supercharge does this mean high end AEM's ECU are not good for me, im not into spending heaps on a computer, just maybe something that will suit my needs and maybe further minor mods, not something overkill...
And coilovers is on the wish list..

well IMO with the mods youve got I think a VAFC tune would do well enough especially since you said you dont want to spend a lot of money on a computer
Of course if youve got the money and dont mind spending it something more advanced (AEM, K-Pro etc.) would be more advantageous for tuning
