Personally I have the Powerstop Drilled and Slotted Rotors with their ceramic performance pads. The pads are junk if you brake heavily from high speeds. I personally would get the front and rear rotors, and pick up a pair of PP front and rear brakes pads. I never had fade with the PP brake pads.
Don't bother with exhaust, it will make the car sound like crap. DP's will help with performance, but from DP's back....zero gains and garbage sound.
Never mind, you have an SHO. I would definitely get some H&R springs, and the trans mounts. If you have stock DP's, and a 15 mm ratchet wrench, it takes about a half hour start to finish including getting the car on jack stands. Literally 4 bolts. You will experience more drive train vibration, but the performance on the shifts during WOT is worth it to me. The virbrations lessen the more miles you put on them. Worth every penny.
Below, stock junk vs Gen2 Mounts and the rear mount installed. I was too lazy to pull off the cover again to take a pic of the front mount. However it is stupid easy to swap out.
Did you have to jack up the engine or transmission?
