ECU - SMT-6 piggyback. Find my install post for a 3vz-fe to see it's specs. If you had the time, I'm sure you would find out you could run your entire engine off an smt-6 piggyback WITHOUT the ECU. Don't do that just to prove it. Stay with the stock system as a base. You're not going to outrun it's ability anyways. Same cost as the AFC's and E-Manage type products, with *actual* useable abilities!
Cams - Stock... FE cams have a large useable powerband. Forget regrinds/welds, or GE cams.
Under drive pulley - If you want. There is previous discussion on them & balance issues, cost/gain etc.
Throtle body *individual?* - No... Larger TB's are not very good investments; horrible power gain/cost, while individuals are too hard to tune, and even worse cost/performance wise.
Intake manifold - Stock... Port and polish it just a bit. Don't worry about port matching. That's over-rated bullshit. Just smooth it out, then polish it.
Straight pipe exhaust with apexi active valve muffler - OK
Some type of engine control? Venom 400 module? - No... This is what your ECU control is for. Venom doesn't do shit anyways. You could wire a resistor in your airbox and do the same thing. (i.e. it works for 0.25 of a second, then the ECU instantly trims it back out via the o2 sensor. It becomes a long-term change quickly, and will continue to be trimmed out even in open-loop mode, where the o2 sensor is ignored)
Some spray. - NOS wet kit. Maybe try to fab your own manifold injection if you wanna be a CRAAAAAZY BOOOOY!!!

Suspension....What company offers the best cornering? Im not concerned about ride quality

Struts? -Whatever everybody else says
Tires? -Goodyear Eagle F1's
stut bars? - Whatever the stiffest ones you can find are, or get the ends, and make your own.
sway bars? -Whiteline
Springs - I say anything over a 1.6" drop. No shitty drops. Put the bastard on the ground and make it stiff.

Cool.
I say forget all cam/intake/pulley/n2o mods. Build the engine and slap a turbo on it. Port & polish the FE heads with the stock cams in them and blow the piss out of the 3S-GTE lovers with your fatter powerband.
