underdrive pulley will help, new plug wires, clutch, and start figuring out cat back exhaust system..maybe a high flow cat while your there.

Forget the PVC intake. Concentrate on things that will complement your turbo system when it's installed. Here are my suggestions in order of HP...
Underdrive pulley Exhaust: 2.5" 0-10psi, 3.0" 10+psi Plug Wires (Accel 8mm are $30 @ summit) Gauges

They don't yield any extra HP, but they're very important IMO. Especially when going turbo, ignition is very important. My engine ran much smoother after I replaced mine. New wires conduct better in cold temps, too!
