I have a good friend do mine (owns own trans. shop), he does it for 100$.. But a regular shop would charge much more I'm sure.. I would guess 300?
A mid 12 car that sounded bone stock would be wicked though... Look at it differently I guess, kinda of a been there done that thing. I would rather want a quiet fast car than a loud fast car.

Well I planned on getting both anyway so it's not like I won't have one but not the other. Don't worry, I'll be doing alot of stuff since a fast LS1 is what I have always wanted lol.

Did they seem to fit pretty well and was the y-pipe catted? I need to pass inspections and such. I'm probably going to be daily driving the car.

Since it involves disassembling and reassembling your transmission I would not recommend installing a shift kit yourself unless you are comfortable taking apart/rebuilding your transmission.

Well I have a buddy who does inspections and he said I wouldn't pass the "visual" test. I could tune it, obviously, to pass emissions and stuff because when they inspect my car they use some thing that reads codes....or something like that. Only other thing I know the test emissions with is the sniffer but they don't use that on my car. But as far the "visual" I wouldn't pass according to him.

I would steer clear from the UD pulley and MAF.
The UD will nto give you much, if any, noticeable power, and it is a big risk. First off, your car has a lot of electric demands, and when you stress your charging system, you'll notice it perform worse with the UD. For example, driving at night, radio on, foglights on, and you roll down the windows, you'll notice your headlights dim. Sit at idle, and turn your headlights/foglights on, and it might stumble and nearly stall. Some cars don't have a problem with this, even with a UD, a lot do.
The MAF is not a restriction, and will in no way/shape/form give you more power, unless you max it out, which you're not anywhere close to.
HEADERS!!!
