I agree. For engine, exhaust would be the next step, then
probably cam(s). After that there's not much to do without spending
some bucks on the head and/or bottom end.
For suspension, the first step would be springs (and
shocks!). A strut tower brace is cheap and easy, but you won't notice
the difference nearly much. The final step would be sway bars.
Upgraded brakes and wheels/tires round out the package.
As far as what order to do them in, it depends on your
priorities. IMHO, the next upgrade should be the suspension (springs,
shocks, and a brace); that'll give you the most added fun.
