Talking about reprogramming the computer, the only mod that I can think of that needs a computer reprogramming is a smaller pulley (if there is anything else let me know) Moreover, even if I get the computer reprogrammed to handle the smaller pulley and increase the rev limiter, will the check engine light go on and how can I avoid this. I ask this because most YouTube videos I see of modded Comp G's that have smaller pullies seem to run fine but in mostly every video, the check engine light is on.

I already have the shop in mind that does this kind of work and they are legit too. I will include a link in this post but can I just brink it to a car mechanic too? Headers I am also looking into doing since they sound like a good idea especially since mine are all rusted. I am just fearing it may screw up the sensors as this goes with the intake as well. Also, if I do this, will I have to worry about that aluminium around the headers being removed or will they unnecessary?

Judging by your comment above, you need to educate yourself in modding the 3800..........do that before you do anything else. The links supplied in these thread are beneficial.

And that place 212 must be legit b/c they have sweet beats poppin on their website and a bunch of rims in the window of their shop..................... I've been by that place, looks like a chit hole. If you want to put lambo doors and tv screens on your car, I suppose they would fit the bill..........I wouldn't go near them for performance modifications.

I've never been by there, but by their site alone, they are crap. Of all the rolling pictures, nothing impressed me. You'd be better off trailering the car to West Coast Customs and at least getting the name brand ghetto flavor with it.

The safely modding thread is what you need to follow, research is cheap and beneficial and knowledge is something you can't put a price on. Most of everything in that thread can be done by anyone who can follow directions and has basic tools. Granted some require torque wrenches and such, but doing it yourself is SOOOO much better. Whether they look legit or not, how do you know they can do the work? You need to find a place that can properly tune after they do the changes, dyno or driven, and they need to know what steps to follow. You could tell them you want it faster, but when they do headers, K&N intake, and a 3.0 pulley, with no tune and let you leave with a $1000+ bill, you will be SOL when the pistons get chipped because they did it wrong.
