Welcome aboard! "Brand new" 2007? Must be some low miles. Start with a SRI (Cobb or whatever). Down-pipe, etc. Some of the more radical members can provide some ways to spend more $$$. Have fun.

Definitely get a rear motor mount. SRI is also a good early mod.

Your options in ascending power order:

Turbo xs dp/rp for the most hp and sexiest sound all in one! (also theres the full cobb dp with a cat and a few others you should check out)

SRI/BOV or RMM combo for some sounds, mininamal gains but alot better shifter feel and it gets rid of alot of teh wheel hop.

or you can drop your car but I would advise doing some bolt ons first because in a few thousand miles your struts will crap out and have to be chagned anyway so theres no need in speeding up your struts death.

I myself went with a SRI as my first mod and paired taht with a cobb ap.

The ap power was not too much in stage one but you can tell and it makes driving more fun. I got the ap so I can have some functions for monitoring boost and stuff as well as having the option to tune later down the road.

Actually, your first thing you should buy is a dashhawk but you dont really need it till you start modding.

I say get a sri as your first mod because thats a great first mod and it makes the stock bpv sing a lil bit. Not to much but its worth it as a first mod since its pretty cheap. I would pair that with a bov however and I would go with HKS because they have the best sound. Its an actual psshhh and not a coin maching noise or that pew pew crap I always hear.
