you are going to get flamed for the lambo doors, but I like them.

Everyone just needs to learn to the taste the slow, and love it.
i hope by the time you get back, u'd be mature enough to realize that
Lambo doors are for kids and people who have not realize what an RX-8 is good for
N2O is stupid when you are already FI, bad on engine, 1 shot, hard to tune, useless
lighting kits are for Fast and Furious movies, grow up.
That being said, nicely done on getting the supercharger, you need to get it and get it tuned properly, hopefully in junction with Access Port or similar control system and a professional tune. (this will cost you near $6,000 or more with super charger) getting this done will get the rx-8 to where the power should be.
if you have money to blow (put away $1000 for emergency engine fund. just saying)
get a set of light weight rim, i like the enkei. then, get a set of nice tires (high grip rating).
put these on the car when you mean business, take it through the corners and you will know what this car really is meant to do.
With this, you can go two routes, mazdaspeed body kits or other ones to allow more airflow into the engine area for cooling or upgrade suspension. better coil-over/shocks (koni yellows), a set of nice brakes suchs as hawk hps.
you will find that u've put more than $10,000 into the car by now and maybe will be slow to throw more money at it.
be safe over there.

Welcome, use the link Lilring gave you. Most of the locals use that more than this site and there two that I know of that are already running a supercharger. One is a custom job and the other is a pettit (for sale or recently sold IIRC). Be safe and come out to a meet when you get back.

ditch the Nitrous purge/led kit....stupid to just purge and not even be using the nitrous...anyway if you still decide you want the led light show fast n furious style....save money and use C02 instead of Nitrous...like you said you're not hooking it up to use for performance so y pay the 4-6 dollars a pound on nitrous when you can use C02 and get the same light show....
however I stilll say ditch that whole idea....
good choice on the S/C....I'd recommend(as stated above) adding an AP onto that to tune....best management system IMO for the 8....
