So uh... what is the question? Are you trying to be fast n/a or turbo later down or what?

Either way you get mods, your going to need Kpro to fully utilize those mods. Might as well get Kpro. You don't need exhaust unless you just want the sound of performance exhaust, your stock exhaust is plentifull since you have an 05-06 model. Intake, well just get any intake, an intake is an intake $20 to $200 they all do the same thing. It's just a mandrel bent tube fitted to your car.

Truf. Kpro will net you 20+hp just retuning the stock ECU. Bolt ons are pretty much a waste of money without proper tuning.

If you already have $1000, just get Kpro. Save up for dyno tuning, and BAM. It's like a whole new car.

The extra 500 bucks is totally worth it down the road.

reflash would be worthless if he plans on modding it further than basic bolt-ons

I'm going to have to agree with this and i know he's not going to stop at just a reflash. Plus K-pro is better for the long run especially for future modding.
