wow, never heard of this company, but that stealth box is great looking and exactly what I was looking for.
I say go for the bass for now, getting a header can cause emissions problems, possibly void your warranty and (from rumors I've heard) worsens your gas mileage.
A new speaker setup, does none of that.

I'm going to call BS on this one.
The weight of your speakers will cause more fuel consumption, not the increased current draw on the alternator.

I haven't heard the newer ED components but the 6500's sounded very nice. You've got 2 choices with their new lineup, let your budget decide.

umm i bet the alt. drawing more current for bigger amps might affect the gas mileage, not much but... ever notice what the ac does to it?
doing n/a mods to a tc are almost pointless, vote for susp. and stereo myself....
stereo, buy good stuff once rather than going ok then upgrading later.... e3.65's will work for most, and the amps are on great price reductions @ the moment... i wouldnt run rear speakers myself.
