I've dealt with performance parts center - call Clint @ 520-7658 - I've only gone to him for paint, and astetic stuff as I've not done anything under the hood yet so not sure... but keep me posted as I'll be looking too since thats the next step for my baby.

Depends on what your looking for. If its exhaust your looking for well I have the GMPP proformance exhaust which is made by Borla and have had numerous comments on how nice it sounds. Most people on here it seems have there own preference when it comes to there parts supplier. CA, Crate engine, Cobalt performance...ect. Those are some that I have used in the past with no problems and they are supporting vendors. Here in Calgary the tuner shops are more geared to the import markets and I find are hard to deal with sometimes but not all the time. The trick is to decide what it is you want and do the research. Buyin parts on line is sometimes the best way to go as pricing is somewhat cheeper. There is lots on our site in the way of reading material and if you have a specific question 9 out of 10 times you can find out about it by using the search feature. If not then ask away.

Mopac sells tons of stuff and can probably order what you need.

I order most of my stuff online. Take a look at ZZPerformance, BWoody, Pulleyboys, CrateEngineDepot... Locally, I've found Mopac to have good prices on Autometer gauges.

where are you? Never mind. Hey you live in Kincora I live just up the hill from that Petro station off of Bedington and Hidden valley link.

I would get on to Deerfoot to 16th ave heading west. Once you cross centre street on 16th ave west stay in the curb lane and Mopac will be about a 1/2 a block to a block on your right hand side.
