Default $1200 to spend on N/A...what to get?

Made enough money by parting out some old stuff on my car to start again fresh...something ive been wanting to do for a while.

What would you suggest i do w/ the $1200 on N/A (2000 Civic Si)?

new valvetrain? like camshafts/valve springs/retainers. Save a little more and get a used jackson supercharger.

B20 bottom end.
or a new valvetrain... TODA!!!!!!
or a new suspension setup.... Konis, GC's
or a new set of shoes! --->Advan AO32R, you could afford two sets! YAY!
that give you a total of probably 10000 miles of pure stickier-than-snot drivin'!
yeeeeeee haw!
