I say lose the stechs and get coilovers. A nice drop can can make a world of difference. The rest of the money can be used if you want different wheels or, if you want to keep your current ones. The money can go to extra engine mods.
06+ heads and tails, Strafe v1 trunk, matte black vinyl wrap for trunk, and then whatever else you want performance/suspension wise. I only say that because I know nothing about performance or suspension, so the only advice I can give is exterior.

the coils are a must.... i will be gettin them for sure
But my advice from one IP owner to another, at least get the vinyl for sure (I'm assuming you're not feeling a new rear bumper). It's relatively cheap and makes the stock rear look 20x better IMO. The black and white contrast really makes the rear stand out.

and again I ask .... what is a realistic budget for Forced-Induction .... whether it be turbo or supercharger
From what I have read my closest guess is 6-10k

I spent $8k on my Vortech build which included all new parts. Polished V3 tuner kit, injectors, plugs, fuel pump, oil & trans coolers, GTM pulley, 3.12 pulley, three gauges, etc. I also installed the kit myself in my garage over a weekend, it's really not that difficult.
Your build can cost less than mine though. I show my car and engine bay so I had all the piping and intercooler polished, bought and polished the strafe 1-piece vortech intake pipe, had a custom gauge pod made for above the clock, gauges we're close to $700 and arent 100% neccessary, you can save some money by buying some used parts too.
