Okay -- starters please dont blow up on me for not searching for this .. i've read through alot of posts looking for an answer but couldnt find it, or needed further clarification, i thought i would consolidate a few questions into one post 
Question 1.
Cold air intake VS Short Ram.
I went to a small local performance shop (great part prices) and the dealer is almost refusing to sell me a CAI, he dislikes them strongly because you have to clean the air filter "Every time it rains." ... now a short ram doesnt seem smart to me on the redline, with the supercharger and intercooler it seems like there will be even more ambient temp in the engine compartment then a usual motor... The stock airbox feeds from the fender as well i believe? I'm not adverse to cleaning the air filter a bit more than usual, so any opinions on this for me would be great.
Question 2. Springs
My dealer has "gold line" or something like that (gold something) springs, they are 160 canadian... now if i went with popular brands i would definitley go with sprint springs, has anyone heard of the springs my guy has available? i think he said they are a 1-1.5 drop...
Question 3. Header
Where is the cheapest place to order the scdyne header online?
Question 4. Spoiler
Same as header : Aero wing, painted.
Question 5. I'm going to go to a muffler shop locally and have them do the muffler/upgrade the choked section ... opinions on what mufflers sound best on our cars?
Question 6. What can I do to reduce wheel hop???
Question 7. Do any companies make a high quality stereo mounting kit for these, i'm looking for 1 din and 1 .5din below it for a DVD/GPS system and an equalizer below it.
