I would have the exhaust done at a shop. Will be a lot cheaper. And forget the TB spacer, they do nothing with our style intake manifold. And get the NTK o2 sensors from Rock Auto. Also you can get the plenum plate on ebay(guy on DF makes them)The money you save on both those the TB spacer,plate and the exhaust, get a Fastman TB or the one on ebay(a guy on DF makes them also) and an SCT tuner.
