with regards your "decent headunit". Ive recently bought wrx hawkeye 56 plate which im enjoying and currently totally standard. The stereo and speakers seem pretty poor - would upgrading the speakers make any difference or is full new stereo required as plan to do similiar to adehook and spend a little money this month but nothing to expensive?

Anti-lift Kit, lowered springs and a geo set up. You can't go wrong, doesn't cost much and you will feel the difference.

dont think ide buy a decat unless you plan a remap at the same time, for safety reasons more than anything plus you wont see the best gains without a map

The speakers are tinsey things, you could upgrade them first and then the head unit later if the sound didn't improve. I used to have a corsa and the stereo was far superior to the impreza.

this sounds good, or alternately pf pads or similair along with goodridge brake lines, or tinted windows and a good night out £300 limit i would avoid power mods altogether cos as someone has already said you will need to remap and you wont have enough £££££££
