What trim did you get? If you got the GT2, changing the suspension might be more of a headache. You have to get code cancellers to avoid a bunch of lights since they are electronically controlled.
I have the HKS Super SQV IV Black Edition (BOV), ADD W1 also makes nice black adapter flanges so you can black everything out.
The JB4 does have gains but it depends on what Map you're running. Map 1 is the default, you will get around a 30HP gain. You can go to Map 2 pretty easily but you would have to re-gap your spark plugs to around .22 or so. Anything else you'll need to starting paying more attention to the fuel you're putting in, upgrading the intercooler, deleting the secondary CATs and mufflers assuming you can, putting an X pipe in, and maybe getting an intake?

I have a GT2, put in the Ark Springs GT-F version, for a mild drop and I'm still using the factory dampers, so no need for any extra parts. the job is a pain on the fronts no doubt but ride is pretty good. Also do Sways front and rear if handling is your thing. The JB4 is a great platform to start with. you can do as little or as much as you like in terms of other mods, but the difference in power is noticeable at every level along the way.
