I'd love to do tarmac rallies! I should look into that. Who do you do that with?

For engine mounts I went with the VibraTech street version, as I want to keep the car dual purpose. For transmission mounts I went with the UUC black ones (no enforcer caps), same reason. But I see now they have a blue version, and I would have picked them. The black ones clean up the shift into second gear a tiny bit, but not much. However the black ones I have I believe are the earlier version (rubber) and now they are poly.

You have probably seen there is lots of info about transmission mounts in this thread:

The clutch stop and CDV are a good idea, but they only make the car ever so slightly more drivable in my opinion. I got the Rogue Engineering clutch stop, but I don't think it is big enough. If I was doing it again, I would research this one (not sure if it fits without issue):

If you want quicker, I would skip the scoops, filter and exhaust, and just go straight to supercharging. If that means saving up then so be it, but it's the only thing that will make any discernible difference to power. Everything else is just messing around. Having said that, changing the mufflers makes a big difference to the experience of driving the car of course. I really like having the gated exhaust, but it is expensive and as heavy as stock. If I wanted lots of sound with the biggest weight reduction I would go with the RPI mufflers personally, and leave everything else stock.

What flywheel and clutch did you go with? Any feedback on that?

I don't know what "rally suspension" is but it sounds awesome. In my head I'm imagining a jacked up AWD Z4 with knobby tires.
