Welcome to the forum. I'm from the Tampa area also.

What types of upgrades are you considering? Suspension, tires, wheels, brakes, cooling system and turbos are pretty common.

What are your plans for the car? Do you want to do open trackdays at Sebring in the future.

Thanks sixshooter for the welcome. For now I would like to lower my car a bit using lowering spring or coils, a decent set of mag wheels and a good tuning exhaust.

I've got some info on the forum about DIY adjustable coilovers. I'll try to post a link if I can find it later when I have time. Springs are cheap and easy.
