I went with the skip shift eliminator and stahlbus valve as the only "mods". I can echo the rest of the replies... it's already pretty good in stock form.
The only other mod I would consider are less dusty brake pads but since I do the occasional autocross and spirited drive i prefer to leave on the stock pads.

Just an FYI, the PS A/S3+ is no longer available, the direct replacement is the newer PS A/S4. The Conti DWS06's are good too. Buddy of mine put those on his ATS Coupe and loves them. The PS's and the Conti's seem to be the favorites on the forum here.
I forgot about the dusty Brembo pads. Good call to replace them with Powerstop Z26 pads all the way around. VERY easy swap and won't void any warranty. If you aren't going to track the car (likely not since it's a vert and most tracks won't allow it w/o a roll bar), the Z26 pads are more than sufficient for street use.
Since you have the vert, get the rear seat windscreen too. The Chevy one, not a knock-off. It goes in the little holes you'll see that are on the rear side panels and has two little arms that tuck under the rear shoulder belts at the top. No mods or holes to drill. The Chevy one also folds in half and stows in a bag that comes with it easily in the trunk for those times you have rear seat pax. Makes a HUGE difference in backdraft wind in the front seats as well as reducing the noise that creates. Also provides a horizontal screen to keep stuff in the back seat from blowing out. Worth EVERY PENNY of the $400 or so it costs!
