have you given any thought to doing it yourself?
Is it an ls1 TA? If so, its all really straight forward...
plugs, wires, air filter, fuel filter, oil change if you need it...

You shouldn't be allowed to drive your car if you don't do the work yourself...

Doing plugs/wires/fuel filter/oil change is cake. Use the German Castrol oil and K&N filter. Filter #hp2006 should be the larger capacity one. You can't really **** up doing plugs and wires unless your legally blind or cross thread a plug. Make sure to put a small amount of anitsieze on the threads of the plugs. Fuel filter is the quick disconnect type. You can pick up the little tools from any parts store pretty much to do it. They go around the fuel line and you push it into the filter. Lines should slide right out. If you can't change an air filter, you shouldn't be allowed to drive and have your man card revoked.
