If you are going to autocross, research what class you will be in. I autocross mine and with the mods I have, i am in a class that is EXTREMELY competitive.
Not sure if you have autocrossed before, but consider that when buying parts.
I reccomend doing the suspension first. Get a set of sway bars and you will have much better gains than an I/H/E
