Performance shop for g37 lower mainland BC?

I have been reading these forums for a while now and people are always talking about a reflash after installing CAI or cat back systems to get the most out of the G. I have read that these places are mostly in Cali and I am not gonna drive down there. Is there any performance shop up here that would do some of these things and hopefully not over priced? I have the magnaflow cat back exhaust on order right now from hottexhaust.com and the coupon code did work for me. And i was thinking of getting the Stillen Gen 3 ultra long CAI.

Hey Jrock,

Have you done any other mods to your car? I'm also from Van, and really interested in modding my g37!!

nothin really just tinted windows and got myself an escort radar detector which has helped me big time. The magnaflow catback is on order and will arrive soon and debating on getting cai from stillen and/or tune my ecu for optimal performance once i can find a shop that can do that.

It was expensive for the intake. $667 on my credit card then $93 brokerage fees and then 200 for install.
