Can't remember. It was either ITG filter, or STi-style foglamp covers and clear lights.

Decent tyres (Goodyear Eagle F1's my tipple)
Quickshift
Back box

Then...

Brakes.
Suspension.

More power is the last thing you should do before the above imho.

I've based this on my MY00 Classic 2000 Turbo (you didn't say what you had).

HKS Induction Kit and dump v/v......

Both a bad Idea in retrospect, but hey, how was I to know then

I also planned never to put on anything that would take any length of time to remove whats a few days anyway

The brakes on my P1 were not good enough, so went and purchased TSL 6 Pot calipers and disk set!
All the other mods have come after putting new stoppers on it!

I think I speak for most bugeye owners : morette headlamps was the first mod (before it was registered even ! ) Then de-tangoing, some security gadgets and PPP.
