Look up RT Tuning. They're just outside of Philly,

Philly, "The city of brothers on drugs"! as what we call it over here on the west side of the state. Remember, between Philly and Pittsburgh. You have Pennsytucky.

Well, I tackled the AEM intake install. Hotrodz was awesome enough to give me his old set! I admit to being a bit nervous doing it myself and took my time with it. It took me a solid six hours. I was missing the new harness for the windshield washer pump so that's not working, I also had to use the filler neck to recut some new pieces for the breather tube on the driver side. The stuff was splitting on my first cut, so I had to use more than I wanted. The driver side bottom hanger and end of the tube were bent out of shape so I was wrestling to straighten both of those out as well. The reservoir is mounted and ready to go when I get a replacement harness in. For some reason one of the tubes were missing the AEM sticker. So after triple checking my handiwork, I ziptied odds and ends down and put it back together. I turned it on before buttoning up the front end and rev'd her a few times to see of the maf's were happy, if the engine sounded fine and for any vibrations. Everything sounded normal so I turned her off and finished putting everything back together. I do want to point out that the AC line is very close to the driver intake tube. I ensured the tube was tight in its mounting points and pulled the line away just enough to have 1/4" of clearance. After I cleaned everything up, I drove it a couple miles down the road to meet my wife for the games and everything ran like a champ. I still need to put in some good miles on it to check for any stumbling, throttle latency, and any other unwanted symptoms. I think I can finally start a new build thread for my new car. Next project is hopefully exhaust and oil cooler. If I blast through those just fine, I'll attempt to install the RRP myself. Anyways, a few pics of my handiwork.
