I hate to break it to you, but you aren't off to the best of start. The BBK underdrive pulley and the Hypertech programmer will offer little to no gains, which is quite agonizing considering the joint cost of the two items. The cold air intake is a good starting mod, as would be a good catback exhaust system. Down the road I would consider doing headers, a tune, and some roller rockers. Also, you can do a mod called the throttle body bypass which is a "free mod" proven to add a little extra power as well. If your car hasn't had a tune-up in awhile, I would also add that to the list.
