You must have alot of money at 20 years old if you talking about doing all this and buying a terminator lol. I mean most people want to know about simple little mods. Just a idea, maybe you should talk to your dad first and see if your even going to get this car before you get your hopes up about all these mods for a new car. JMO

How you figure your going to have 5k left over for mods? If you sell your car for 22k, a good terminator with low miles is 22k-26k. I actually see you owing some money am I wrong? Unless you have 5k saved up lol.

Give you a break down of what I got mine for:
$27k a year ago, Had 12k miles on it, 100% bone stock all the way down to the stock tires from 04. Still had the plastic on the seats, floor mats, steering wheel and dash. The guy gave me the orig window stick, svt manual, svt book and the certificate with build number.
Great deal like this are out there you just gotta find em. Check SVTP there are alot of good cars over there for sale. I know there is a guy over there selling his 03 10th anni cobra for 26k, It has only 2,500 miles on it.

youre going to need;
MAFia (or) a new mass air flow meter (mafia's cheaper)
Injectors
BAP
Cold air (running a ram air voids the KB warranty)
Throttle Body
Tuner (or the switch chip... in the long run its cheaper to buy a handheld and just save your tunes on it rather than ordering tunes from KB)
+ install and tuning
not absoultely necessary, but definately a good idea to upgrade your cooling system at the same time
Dual Pass heat exchanger
160* thermostat
Head cooling mod.
I'd say that MINIMUM would be $2,250 for all that + the actual blower, which is like 3,400 for the 2.6 in black. and you'll still need the install and actual tuning cost. figure 6,700
