Default 07 EX-L maintenance questions

Hey, I just joined and have a few questions.
I drive a 2007 Accord EX-L V6 manual. Its a great car and i just hit 85k
so I'm going to do some maintenance, belts, water pump, spark plugs, etc.
I got a recall on the car earlier after i got it fixed today the dealer handed me a list of a few things i should get done soon.
So far I
-OEM belts and water pump
-OEM Power Steering Pump
-OEM Cabin Filter
-Injen CAI

And now I want to get some spark plugs, planning on going with NGK
then get a cat-back exhaust...not to sure on which one.

Weird question but do NGK spark plugs come gaped to size exactly? (herd sometimes they don't..maybe just a rumor idk)

Which exhaust is the best for the price? under $1,000

Thanks

2007 with 85k miles, I wouldn't just replace the waterpump or PS pump "just because". Now if there's a particular problem with those, sure...

NGK plugs come gapped as indicated by the suffix of the type.
-11 at the end is 1.1mm gap. That is, if the cardboard box isn't crushed or anything like that.
