I've got an "already done" list and a wish list, both of which are encrypted on my HD. 
I'm only about $5K into it so far, but the wish-list is growing! Hey, do track days and tuners count?! Maybe I better re-think that number and change to 256-bit encryption!

I've had my car since September and have not gotten the bug as bad as others:
American Racing Headers, installed $1,995
Vararam, installed $545
Dyno-tune $500
Total $3,040
The seat of the pants difference after these few mods is very gratifying. I can see why guys get hooked on the mods now but that's it for me for the time being.

probably about 8k
At well over 500rwhp I'm guessing I'll spend another 8k before I'm done. I don't need to be the fastest. Someone is always faster. There just comes a point when the tires spin no matter what I presume.

About $25K. That includes a Lingenfelter engine, K&N CAI, RPS Stage 3+ clutch, LG Long Tube Headers, Hi-flo cats, Corsa Sports Exhaust, MovIt brake kit, Forgeline wheels, and Caravaggio rear fenders.
Thankfully, I don't have to explain this to the non-existent wife/SO!!!

Um, a lot. A real lot. I do most of my own work to include the body and motor so it would be 4 or 5 times as much as I have spent. Embarrassingly I'm probably still well within the top 5. The only thing I have left is the interior and the blower. That's another $10k 
At north of 500rwhp I have recently been considering calling it quits and buying a C1. I'm pretty much sold unless I win the lottery and then I can have both. Mrs. Aintqik wants a baby though.

You must have had twice as much money in mods as the original price of the car.
How much did you finally sell it for if you are willing to say?
