Looking for recommendations for installers for Steeda spring kit (springs, brace, plates), and underdrive pulleys, and 3.73 gears. Should be in East Bay or Peninsula area.

Also considering:
Alumimum driveshaft
MSD ignition, better wires
CDC Side Exhaust (Magnaflow catback)

Have in place: C&L 80mm MAF w/ K&N.

Not a drag racer, but a back roads corner carver. Looking for similar minded, for early Sat/Sun morning canyon runs in East Bay.

I'd skip on the aluminum drive shaft and spark plug wires and isntall the underdrive pullies yourself.

Do everything but the gears youelf. All of those jobs are extremely simple. Honestly. As for the gears, I only know of great shops in sacramento....so I'm no help there. Don't worry about the wires....the driveshaft? Well, that's a matter of opinion. I love em, but understand mine was replacing an unbalanced stock steel piece. Anyway, you can have springs, plates, and brace (I'm guessing you mean strut tower) done and finished in about 2-3 hours tops. As for the pullies, that's a very easy job as well. Understand how much a shop will charge you for these items to be installed. Save yourself the money and buy something eles fun for the car! That's what I alawys did and I loved the new toys I alawys got! [Razz]

If you are willing drive to the south bay, there is a new shop in Milpitas that just opened about a month ago. The shops name is GNJ Motorsport and the guys name is Greg. Phone is 408-945-1900. Clean shop, nice guy and good work at a reasonable price. What more could you ask! Highly recommended... He does all that you were asking.
