09 Fit Sport - Mods/Upgrades

Anyone have thoughts/ideas for a high quality sport suspension, turbo, cold air intake, exhaust, brakes, and other upgrades for increased performance? Looking for suggested part manufacturers and shops that specialize in the work please!

09 Fit Sport, 180k miles. Great conditional mechanically. Suspension is kind of worn and old. Leaking cv joints, squeaky suspension, etc., but drives great. Well maintained otherwise (engine/transmission)

Thanks! (new to this forum)

Forced induction really isn't a thing for the second gen. Due to in part the exhaust manifold being integral to the combustion chamber itself, and the cylinders wont tolerate more than about 150 whp before blowing holes in the block.

Fastbrakes.com sells kits for the Fit for braking, Fortune auto sells pretty much the best set of coils possible for the second gen. Cold air intakes are pointless, invest the money elsewhere.

I'm kinda looking at the bilsteins, not too sure about anything regarding boltons, if you're looking for an easy brake upgrade the wilwood calipers seem to be a good choice.
