If you are interested in learning about turbochargers and Superchargers, look into "Maximum Boost" By Corkey Bell.
You can buy it online/used for cheaper than new, or you can check out your local library and see if they have a copy. If they don't they can probably get it from another library in the city/nearby city. I get all kinds of books @ my local Library from Los Angeles City Library (saves me a drive and they do it for free).
There are many other books out there on engine tuning and modification. You should read as many as you can. If they don't interest you, then you can go with just a CAI and you know you researched it. If you really get into it, there are always more books to read/research. Eventually you'll get to the information you're seeking and get the confidence to tackle whatever project you can dream up!

thank you Random. I will definitely be looking into getting that book. I like the library idea but I think I'll buy it so I can just look it over when ever I may need to plus sometime in the future someone else may always need it and can use it as well.

See what your library has. If you read them and like them, THEN you can buy them. No sense spending $23.07 on a book you decide you don't want!
I appreciate the help guys. The more I can learn the better off I will be in getting everything done. I would like to actually have a nice customized car for once.
I do plan on getting rims but the idea of dropping it may not be a good one. the roads in Pa come standard with lots of pot holes and rough patches. Then again if I keep it to a small drop I may be fine
