Congrats on the purchase! That's a nice looking ISF you have! As for brake pads, the Project Mu pads were awesome for me as a street car. Admittedly, I never tracked my car though I've read that the pads perform well there too, but on a street car application they provided all of the bite of the stock pads (and once I really had to stand on the brakes to avoid a collision, which I did successfully) with less than half of the dusting.
As for the intake, it looks good and dresses the engine bay up, but it does not provide any additional power, and in fact may actually lose you a few HP. It's nothing you'll feel, but realize that no aftermarket filter and intake really performs for these cars. If you're looking to add power, headers and exhaust systems are your best (and virtually only) bet.

They bite well, but I found them difficult to modulate. Really an on/off switch. My Porterfield R4S pads have less initial bite, but are plenty aggressive as you modulate the pedal. It takes some getting used to, but I find it more intuitive than the stock pads.

Need help.... For some reason my display of the nav screen is always in day mode since a few days back, is not changing to night mode like it use to. Does someone know how to reset that?

Have a 2010 ISF up here in Canada with the same polished on the front rims with grey in the back. I didn't know that the Polished Blades was exclusive to the Neiman M. edition or those ISF's outside the US. I once saw a 2008 ISF up here, and assumed they had no shine due to being really dirty/full of break dust.
They really shine on the front and look great with the grey following the back 'gloss'. Unfortunately, the OEM pads do dust them up pretty quick!
Congrats Ramfis! The car looks great.
