Beautiful car you got there.I take it that it is still at stock heigth? The list seems a very good one to start with. Using taco bills how to s is the way to go. just pay attention and if you need to take your own pics along the way.
research the driveshaft a little because some require you to use an adapter plate that requires you to reset up rear end spacing. The Dyno tune if done right is probably better for your car/hp than a canned tune and you would know what your car is making and running across the board. 3000 is not to bad for a shop doing it but we most of us on here feel up to the task. I think you can do most of it to.
I cannot comment on the charge motion plates because Ive never dealt with them.
Good luck and keep us informed.
Yes, the car is still at stock height. I put a CDC Classic Chin Spoiler in the front soit looks lower.I was thinking of just tuning it on the Dyno later on as a canned tune/intake kit would be cheaper. As for the charge motion plates I will look further into it. I called the shop (Blow By Racing) yesterday and I asked him about the charge motion plates and he said it doesn't really affect your low end. I will do more research though. My next question is Catted X or Off Road X? The cops is what I'm worried about. I just want a bit more sound from my Flowmaster Axel Back's. Would a Hi-Flow Catted X do the job?

16? Did you win the lottery (you have to be 18 to do that) or do your parents have more money than sense?

Sorry guys, i just can't help myself with these kids.

Well, to be honest, you could do the Tuner, Intake, UDP, LCA's and Off Road X yourself... I'd say have them do the driveshaft/CMDP if you didn't want to, but you could even do those... but that first set of things all should take you a day or two to do it all....
I'm only 16 and I'm just entering the automotive world. I only know so much about cars. I'm very independent so if I did do something I'd probably do it alone. I'll see if I can try to find guides or something that could help me install the parts I'm looking to buy. If you know of any guides please post links to them. I'm not sure if the search option is working but I will look into it. One of the main reasons why I would want them to install it is if anything goes wrong I can simply take it back to them and they can look into it. I'm also pretty sure that I would need a liftto install some of these parts and I don't have one. I may not need a lift but a lift would make my life much much easier, would it not?
