I don't think an alignment is going to fix that somehow. It sounds like "something" is gone and needs replacing. If it was shudder that starts at a specific speed it might be as simple as a balance but the fact you get it when turning one way indicates a repair might be needed.

Ive spent shitloads on mine...
just this year
rims $2000
custom intake $388
a few repairs comes up to about $1000

That adds up to about $5000

Not really. That was for under drives plus labour, throttle body and egr spacer plus labour.
Throttle body is not just a straight swap over thanks to the Americans having their engine the wrong way round
