You'll want to wait a couple week to get an alignment so the springs can settle; I'd suggest going to West End Alignment in Gardena for the job, the guy does amazing work on all cars, from full race Porsche's to stock cars. Cost is $90 cash/check but well worth the trip, usually has about 2 week wait...

^^^ Wow 2 weeks wait... why not just go to firestone that's close by and call it a day. It's not really rocket science for an alignment is it?

well... you're gonna have to wait 2weeks- a month for the drop to fully settle before you get an alignment ANYWAYS, so why NOT use the pro? especially if you're not going to have an SPC kit which will help it back to stock specs, and if you want SOME negative camber pros know what to do especially if their used to working on race porches

well...first things first, let me get the springs installed and i'll figure out which company to do my alignment. I want to get near spec alignment without having to buy the SPC kit...

wait for the springs to settle, 1-2 weeks depending on how much driving you do. Trust me, they will settle a little lower than the day they were put on. Then do you alignments etc. Post pics when she's dropped.
