6 K budget I would go with gears, suspension mods (lower it and welded subframes), nice exhaust (mid pipe and catback) headers if you are doing the install yourself, and a nice used supercharger kit with tune.

It's supposed to be fun so no one should feel pressured to buy anything they don't want or can't afford. But once you have one you'll always wonder why you waited.

The op should just buy what makes him happy, but I suggest doing research and listening to others who already been where they're at now.

He seems content on going with bolt on's first so that's what he should do, If he still likes the car 1 or 2 years down the road then invest in the SC if he still wants to. After all it's not cheap and you'll never get the investment back.
I hear ya. Im in a position to land a pretty good job(for me) 16 bucks an hour(compared to the 9 i make now lol) ...So im going to save up for a Bronco hopefully and use that a my DD. If i do that i will for sure get blowedddd in the vert. My next car either a 96-98 cobra or an s2000 will get a turbo right off the bat.

OP if I were you I would research the stuff everyone suggested. Learn about your car and what each aftermarket part does for your car. Then you will have a better understanding and be able to pick out the parts you would like and wouldn't like.

Your first post shows you have a lot to learn. All the advice given in this thread so far has been very good. If I were you, I would learn as much as I could, then when times comes (and so does the money) you will know what you want for your car and you will look back at your original post here and laugh (don't mean to sound mean lol).

Good luck!
