Talk to Casey the assistant manager at Discount Tire on North Rancho (645-5330). Tell him that you are from LVRacingScene.com and he will hook you up.

My house. If its just exhaust it can be done in 1-2 hours, but if you have cats too then I don't want to mess with it. Springs I can do as well.

EDIT: I guess I should give you some other suggestions as well....

Exhaust - Performance Muffler 740-5300
Springs - I don't know, but springs are easy to do so any shop should be able to do it. Just don't go to Sin City Performance. LDL is a good shop, but they have a 3 month waiting list. Other than that...California.

You can get tires wherever, I usually order them on-line and have them put on at Discount Tire or Big-O. The one that I mentioned is the only one I know of that will give you a discount though. That guy Casey posted in the forums over at LVRacingScene.com that if anybody wants a hook up on wheels or tires to call him. I have never taken advantage of his offer, but I'm sure he will hook it up as best he can.

When do you want to do your exhaust/springs?

Good choice on the Injen. Organize a tech session when the parts come in.

go to tires.com first, then most discount tires will match the online prices, and you won't have to pay for shipping.

Which headers are you thinking about? Jimbo says that he thinks the Stillen can go in without moving the engine.

Stillen is really expensive and rated by people as an average header. I went with Strup headers. You don't have to tilt the motor to install those either, but I still wouldn't trust any shop here to install them correctly.

I thought about doing the headers myself, but came to the conclusion that it is just a bit out of my comfort level.

I'm willing to experiment on your car...

...that way when it comes time to do mine we'll know what not to do.
