I have a 2018 SHO PP with 55k miles. Here's what I'd like to achieve:
Faster than 5.0, SS & SRT8 in quarter-miles and highway pulls, and improve handling.

I've looked into livernois but the sense I've been getting is that they're not that good anymore

AJPTurbo and ortiz seem legit.

Want to lower the car (h&r probably) and return as much as I can to stock specifications (I believe bpd1151 had a thread on doing that)

**EDIT**
And if possible, do all that while running 93 octane

This will also be my daily and I will need it to be reliable. I'm also new to this so small words haha

do you have E85 in your area? E30 tune, plugs and a 3 bar are all you need to wake up the bull. this will take you from a high 13.xx car to a mid 12.xx car
AJP IMO is the best tuner out there for a car that behaves normal but puts out some awesome power.

93 oct you will be a low 13 car 13.0 -13.2 still need 3 bar and plugs. you will also need a sct device to tune with it. IMO go with the livewire ts

I plan on sparks and 3 bar, I'd also like a CAI, downpipes and exhaust but its hard to find a good sounding exhaust that won't screw with emissions

Save your money on a CAI. A drop in K&N in the stock air box, provides more air then the stock turbos can handle.

Get some PPE catted down pipes. They will not throw codes.

I removed my 3rd cat and stock resonator and replaced it with a custom mid pipe set up with a Magnaflow Resonator. I added those to the stock mufflers. My exhaust freely flows now, and the stock mufflers are not a restriction. It passes emissions with flying colors as well.

Easily attainable goals with a little money. Personally I would start with a power pack, downpipes and intercooler for power and then H&R lowering springs for the lows.

Our tunes have consistently gone 12.8s on 91 octane fuel, 12.6s with 93, and 12.3x with E30 fueling with no other modifications outside of our power pack components. With downpipes and intercooler you are knocking on 11s in the right air with E30.

Let me know if we can help make those dreams a reality :)
