Planning S5 SP build, need suggestions

Getting ready to have my S5 gtu rebuilt and streetported. Just wanted suggestions on what else I should do. Plan for the car is to be a daily and I want to do as many autox's and track days as I can.

Intake= from what I've seen most of them are basic cone filters that just sit in the engine bay. Do any companies make real cold air intakes? Other thing is to just make a box for the filter and isolate it from the heat in the engine bay.

Exhaust= Already have the RB catback , planning to get the Header and Pre-Silencer. Are the SDJ headers worth the money premium over the RB Race ones?

Pulley's= who makes them?

I'm planning to redo all the grounds, I should have an SAFC lying around to fine tune.

Other than really spendy things such as ITB's and going full standalone what else should I be considering?

Thanks,

Ark

Since you have the motor out, I'd get a lightweight flywheel and new clutch. For a dd I won't get pulleys, IMO they're not worth it.

other then that, i cant seem to find any others. but ive looked through some other forums of RX-7 drivers and they seem to all be very pleased with the Unorthodox pulleys though
