Maybe just do a bit of a search on RPW mate, they don't have the best rep on a lot of forums. There was a rather large thread a month or so ago with a lot of first hand experiences.
And you can see their handy work on Foorzcool's ride thread (http://www.aussiemagna.com/forums/showthread.php?t=66504&page=43)
Check out Lenda's and Jasons VRX both have had good N/A builds.

All the mods that are discussed on that page have been covered heavily on the forums over the years. Use the search feature (top right corner of the forum) to find threads covering these areas. You'll find much more useful information than looking at just one guide or starting one thread about something.
To kick you off though, Steve Knight Racing (in Adelaide) can re-tune your stock ECU (one of only two people in Australia that can do it). Unless you're going forced induction, it'll eliminate the need for a standalone ECU. Type "SKR" or "reflash" (or something similar) into the search feature and you'll find people's experiences and results with tuning.
Also, if you're going to upgrade your suspension (highly recommended), do the springs and shocks at the same time, as it's a similar amount of labour.

Ignore RPW, search these forums for things like modding guides or "best bang for buck" guides etc.
Many senior members agree, a lot of what RPW says is BS and done to sell products that don't improve anything.

Yup yup yup, steer clear of RPW, makes my blood boil! Plenty of places to go other than there..... I should take photos of the inside of their workshop and it will shock most of you how dodgey, out dated and horrible the place is, its falling to pieces.

Sure did... Doesn't instil confidence if they cant even spell! When did schools stop teaching that their/there/they're are not interchangeable...?

lol @ you need a dual feed fuel rail kit to get rid of flatspots. Umm no, a tune will get rid of any flatspots......everyone knows the stock 3rd gen fuel system is good for at least 15-20% more power. What a joke.
Did I just read 450kw from a 6G74 on the bottom of that page? How many minutes does it last at 450kw for? lol
