Keep the stock coils

get rid of:
The coils you bought
The subframe connectors
Strut tower brace
You don't need 80# injectors, 60 or even 42 well probably suffice. If you really want a good injector, goes auth ID1000.
Steeda x brace
The most trouble and complaint free clutch for our cars has been the Mcloed rst.

Also get rig of the rotors and get normal ones or slotted. Those drilled rotors are for show and might crack under stress. Put some motul RBF600 fluid and good track pads.

You already bought the tires, but I suggest a square setup so you can rotate them and also minimize understeer. In my sig I still had the staggered setup. I now switched to a square setup and the car handles much better.

Camber/caster plates would have been a better choice than the GT500 strut mounts.

MSD coils are fine, I have them. No performance improvement but mine were bad and the red coils look better than the OEM black ones

I also got these:
Dirt cheap and they work great:

Note: The front bar does not fit with Maximum motorsports camber plates
