Horsepower

I know I'm a rookie here, but a question for all:
considering all the mods available what is the max hp potential of our cars (within reason guys) on a $5,000 budjet.

Depends on how long you want your tranny to live. $5k should cover a supercharger (if it every materializes).

You can do alot with $5000 bucks. You can get lowering springs, shocks, CAI, exhaust, windows tinted and maybe even header. That should be about it if you willing to spend $5000. Rims depend on what you get, you can get nice ones or cheap ass ones. You might have a few bucks left over to replace the yellowly original bulbs with Piaas and Polargs

That's about what I had in mind with the exception of the CAI, I do not want the sound and the HP vs $ spent doesnt qualify as a must, IMO.
