Default Looking to add to my bolt on List! Please Help!

Ok So far I have ordered:

Borla Dual Exhuast
Strup Header
Unorthodox Pulley
Ground Fusion 4G Grounding Kit
Perrin Fuel Rail

I have the box on Jack Stands looking to get everything done at once. (Exterior and Interior). So I am wanting to have all the bolt ons Possible. Please let me know what else can be added to this list.

What kinda injectors should I bump up too?

Also looking into Super Chargers. Who all makes them for the xB?

You will not feel the exhaust bolt ons if you dont put on an intake. I put on my axle back (invidia) hardly felt anything then put on the header (little noise a small power gain, then i bolted on the CAi (injen) BIG DIFFERENCE!! I wouldnt recommend putting on a header and exhaust if you dont plan on putting on an intake. A good set of injectors for our car and they fit perfectly are the ones from the celica GT not the GTS the GT they are a perfect fit and give of more gas than our stock ones, you can combine this with an Apex'i S-AFC II and you can tune the gas mixture for your Scion. (that my next upgrade). I already have the injectors froma fiend of mine that put a turbo on his GT and changed to RC engineering injectors.
Have you thought of suspension? Tein or Tanabe with koni yellows. It doesnt matter what springs you get, but go with Koni Yellow (adjustable) there i sno better choice outhtere unless you want to go coilovers.

If your going for a supercharger, you probably don't want to use the unorthodox pulley, I think its an underdrive, would be bad for s/c. go with the perrin or another that is just lightened, not underdrive.
The two companies with s/c right now are blitz and power enterprise. there are also a couple turbo kits out there. There are rumored to be more s/c and turbos to be unvieled at sema.
I would not pick an intake untill you pick a s/c.
if you dont go f/i there's no point to the fuel rail or injectors.

Suspension is already taken care of.
Put on the DC Sport Upper Strut Bar
GTSpec Mid Chasis Brace and 4 Point Front Chasis Brace
Hotchkis Sways
adding Air Ride in the next 2 weeks....

I am just looking for more ideas for a few power add ons to help this thing move a little better as I am not fully sure what all is out there for this thing.
