Recommended mods right 'out the box'?

As I've mentioned, my car is days away! Currently I'm making a list of things to have done right away; the list includes:

Snow Tires
I-Pod Interface
Tint
Clear-Bra
Hardwire V1

Anything else anyone can think of?

There are posts here with members 'finding' an additional 10-15 bhp after the charcoal filters had been removed; IF my memory serves me correct.
