Any mechanics/tuners near chicago?

[mcrowe3797]

Is there any mechanics/tuners near chicago? I have a few issues with the car and some performance mods i will do and need it to get tuned.

I have weird electrical problems...... I forgot what fuse it is (at work now) but it keeps buning out. The dash lights never work, but the clock only works when my headlights are off?

When i turn the wipers off they go down and then move back up about 4 - 8 inches.

When i run the ac or heat, it feels like the ac clutch engages for 3-5 seconds then stops 3-5 seconds. When it does that the revs will drop them go back up. Even on the highway crusing at 70 it does it.

The alternator (yeah i know these cars love to eat them) light was on forever then one day i just hammered on it through 3rd and its been of since then.

What is the advantage of converting my 90 sho to use a 94-95 alternator? is it really hard?

Sorry thats a lot but thats just the main problems.

For mods i will want to do BBB, y-pipe and have some questions on the break upgrade. What is the stock breaks now? Is the 11.6's worth it? I mainly drive like an ass, go fast and stop fast. nothing like a road course though. i will do the catback later

For the converstion it gets you more amps. Unless you have a large stereo system it wont help much on a daily driver. There is some wiring and modifications involved.

If you get BBB's I would port the intake at the same time.

For the 90 you have 10.2 brakes. Upgrading to 11.6 is worth it for a daily driver.

As always thank your for the swift and knowledgeable response!
Any idea in the cost to port our intake? Do i have to get it gasket or something matched to the BBB?

doing just those tunes will i need a LPM?

And what are all the parts i would need for the front brake upgrade or should i do both front and rear?
