People generally start with intake, exhaust, then header after you lower it.

Not really any certain order. Just remember that its easy to go fast once you get mods, but many people forget about handleing and stopping. Suspension mods usually make more of a difference in your car's performance than power mods do.

Did your old suspension go to Chad? If so, I'll probably get it after Asylum. I don't have stock bits to send him for the trade so I'll have to wait till then.

With an auto, you'll be fine running up to 250ish horsepower with stock engine internals and transmission. Just make sure to do your research on how everything works before getting a kit and you'll be fine.

this is true, i know of people who chip there cars before anything, personally i think that is a waste of money until you have some real engine upgrades, but alot of people also start with cams, and now since they have cams for tC, thats were you should start 8)
