I don't think it's that it isn't mod friendly, just that it already breaths pretty well from the factory. Some of the numbers FI folks are making with the stock block show the VQ is a pretty stout machine in its OEM form.
If my budget was limited, I would probably just stick to testpipes/catback and intake - or save the cash for a used stillen SC or something. Seems they go up for sale all the time and you could be modestly supercharged for 4-5k, with a path forward (air-to-air intercooling, fuelling upgrades) for more if you wanted in the future. I have also seen used BP kits go up for sale in the 5k range.
