bear with me guys, i am just learning.. i need guidance.. thanks!
I would recommend supporting mods. Oil cooler, upgraded clutch/flywheel (not necessary, but recommended), CAI (resale after you install SC), exhaust, (2.5in minimum), HFC's/TP's/LTH's (only Stillen, GTM stage 1, and GTM twin superchargers are known to fit with the LTH's), M370 intake manifold (most like this mod, some don't, may not be necessary with FI).

I would also look into a better set of tires, and a brake upgrade. Suspension upgrades are also a recommendation... Depending on the kit, just the parts alone will start at $6,000 and top out around $8,000. Twin superchargers start at $10,000. If you do turbo's, Boosted Performance has a damn good turbo kit that can be installed in your garage over a weekend for around $6500 If I remember. GTM has a 16G, 18G, and 20G kit that will be released soon that should be competitive with that price, they also have higher end kits that scale up to retarded amounts of power. Greddy has their kit available, but is more expensive and you have to buy your own fuel system and tuning. Lastly Fast Intentions is putting the finishing touches on their twin turbo kit. No pricing yet, but I'm anticipating around the same price as GTM's scalable twin turbo kits.

Expect to spend $10,000 installed and tuned to do everything right...minimum.
