I have a MC, so I have to spend money to prepare my engine and tranny for high power...but here is my ongoing list...

Borla Exhaust $650.00
OBX Header $770.00
Cylinder Head w/ valves $1,900.00
Schrick Cam $470.00
screamin demon coil $80.00
Cold Air intake $200.00
Intake Manifold $300.00
Stiff Mounts $50.00
MTH tuner remap $380.00
Forged Crankshaft $500.00
connecting rods $365.00
high compression Pistons $800.00
Throttle body $400

Spec lightened flywheel $430.00
Spec lightened Clutch stage 2 or 3 $260.00
Uprated Tranny $1,800.00

M7 Strut tower reinforcements $110.00
Billstein coilovers $1800
camber plates $180 already installed
BBK $1000

Chrome kit $260.00
Chrome handbrake $25.00
Leather Dash $330.00
Leather shift boot $80.00

Driving lights $300.00
Angel Eyes $81.00

Total...$12,441.00

That leaves me lot's of money for nitrous etc... maybe even low compression pistons and a nice sized turbo...plus other suspension upgrades.

BTW, I am so attached to my car that if I had 20K to spend, I would put it into my car rather than trading it in for an S and spending the money on that...

I thought I was the only person crazy enough to map out all of the mods I wanted...I'm glad to have other crazy people in this support group!

track time, tires and brakes as I wear them out. done.

At around 6 weekends a year, ~$300 a weekend, that's ~$1,800 in track fees. Gas for the track will bump that up to around $2,000 a year. A set of tires a year brings it to around $2,500. A set of brake pads / rotors gets you up around the $3,000/year mark... not counting transportation / lodging / etc. That's rough approximations though.
