Default preturbo parts

I will most likely be going to sound performance for their turbo setup next summer. I have 2 grand to spend for thhis summer and would like to know if there are things i should be buying now that will give me some more hp now (or not) that can still be used with the turbo later . I am not a mechanic or anything so don't really know where to start. Thinking bout fuel management like a safc and stuff but i dont know. My is car stock rite now but suspension is coming in soon. Any suggestions on what I should be buying rite now?
thanks charles

Not much compared to Supra TT brakes. Don't waste your money.
