Injectors should be good for a bit. LICP would be another key upgrade consistent with the other things your are adding.
Do you have stuff to monitor the car.
If not Tactrix cable, WBo2, and JDM Map would be at the top of my list.
Also, start saving for a clutch.

I would. Learning how to log your car and make sure everything is running the way it should is vital.
Plus, with the tactrix cable and EvoScan, it is cheap. About $125 for both. The EvoX Map is about $100 and the WBo2 is another $200ish, depending on which one you go with.
If you are going to be adding parts, being able to log your car should be your number one concern.

Even after having it professionally tuned, personally I would still be keeping an eye on knock and boost etc...
With the Tephra mods, you can have your "Check Engine" light blink when the ECU encounter a certain degree of knock and then blink fast when it goes above another preset number. This can give you an idea of how your car is running and whether you should be taking another look at your tune due to weather changes, bad fuel, etc...
You can also log your car every now and then to make sure your boost settings are still the same, etc....
Not to mention being able to pull the codes your car might throw and reset them.
There are a number of reasons you should be concerned with how and what your car is doing, especially if you plan on modding the vehicle. Understanding the car and being able to trouble shoot things will make owning a modified vehicle much less of a headache and will allow you to enjoy it much more. If you are new to all of this, you should definitely be pouring over the forums and learning as much as you can before putting parts on the car.
