Look in the DIY section. There are plenty of intake install how to's. I know Semtex has a header install DIY. Not sure what you are planning with mods but I really wouldnt bother with headers, I dont believe anyone is really getting much out of them. Plus the install is a PAIN IN THE BUTT.

I have done this myself and it is a very easy install. Dont be afraid when people speak of the cutting involved. It is just shaving a little plastic down.

There is an excellent diy on the gen3s. Look under tech area in the sticky section. It can be done easily at home.

Uprev has an e-tune service, you data log your car, send it back and they email you a tune. The better option is to go to a shop which specialize in tuning and dyno tune the car after all your bolt ons are installed.
