Default Is upgrading my engine now useless?

Hi, I own a 2000 Civic EX and I plan on eventually buying a turbo kit, probably the Edelbrock open track kit. Anyways, I was looking at this picture,

So am I right in figuring that its useless for me to buy things like a CAI and exhaust manifold b/c its just gonna have to be tossed when I get this kit? If so, what should I concentrate on upgrading in the meantime, exhaust system? Engine internals? I'll probably start at around 7-8 lbs of boost but eventually i'd like to turn it up and end up at around 250whp. Thanks guys, I hope I don't sound like an idiot i've been lurking on this forum and turbod16 for a while and i'm trying to learn as much as I can.
