Looks good. Are the H-techs not softer than the stock STi springs, at least for WRXs they're barely above stock rates but have a 1.6" drop. I also remember a notice from SOA a couple years back saying not to use those bug guards since they disrupt airflow to the top mount but the STI scoop probably makes up for that.

Where to go for stage 2? My guess is Accessport and some turbo upgrade.

The H-techs seem to be just a little bit stiffer as far as a regular ride than the stock springs but I can tell more of a difference when i really get into a turn. They seem to stiffen up a lot quicker once you put them under pressure. I hadn't heard about that bug guard notice, I might have to ask around about that. I do like the look of it but I'm more about functionality than looks...

For stage 2, well, I shouldn't need an access port since I'm planning on going with openECU in the next couple weeks to complete stage one. I do have a good many other plans for then as well too. The turbo upgrade is included in my stage 3 plans ;).
