if he is running cats then yeah he will need both front and rear extentions, if he is running a ORY then just the fronts... i would recomend replaceing the spark plugs and wires since you gotta take those off anyways... and everyone willl say to do the poly motor mounts for the eng and trans... i didnt, but some people swear by it...
