what u mean by weird?
hmm.....Cold air intake, maybe the JoeP hat-trick (sets you up nicely for upping boost in future), maybe hardpipes (edit - $400, maybe not)...not sure where the rest should go...let me look around. You could always go with boost gauge, a/f gauge, and a-pillar pod for future too....set yourself up for some mods when the money comes later down the road.

I'd say something power wise since it's got pretty much everything already. There's always room for more power. 
Spend your money right and you could almost get a full exhaust (turbo back) and an intake system.
Gauges and what not are a good idea too if you plan on increasing boost.
But by far, a boost controller is the best bang for your buck however.

get a boost and oil pressure gauge.
get corky bells' maximum boost and learn a little about turbos.
Get a CAI.
Enjoy.
oh yea
a/f gauge is pointless
NO ONE NEEDS AN A/F unless you have a Wideband O2 sensor to get ACCURATE readings. A regular O2 sensor shows you nothing.

$500?
Ship the car to me and let me keep it.
...well the only thing you need to do to your car performance wise is to get a boost controller (mbc)and turn up the boost. Thats it! There is nothing else that will give you that much power. Why even spend $500? All you need is like $150.

Best way to spend $500: Extra car payment! 
Or maybe booze and hookers.

If'n you're going to bump the boost, get a gauge so you know how much you're upping the boost - that way you end up with a powerful engine not a paperweight.
First thing I'd do is take a decent performance driving school... that's the most important part of the car, and it's easily transferable car-to-car...
