I went through the full spectrum of mods when I had my '99 Civic Si. Suspension, supercharger, oil cooler (nice Greddy unit), electronics, then Hondata, etc. It was great fun and I was young enough to enjoy it and wanted to spend the time tweaking it here and there. I also did all the work on it and installed all the mods myself.
Have I been tempted to install a supercharger on my S2000? Yes! Especially since my neighbor across the street supercharged his S2000. Have I looked at the Stillen supercharger for my 370z? Oh heck yeah...
I just don't think it's worth it in the end. Better to pony up the extra cash upfront when you buy a car. $10k gets you into a whole different class of vehicle.
