These are the mods planned all at once for in the next month:

Comp 12600 cams & springs (just for the rumpity rump effect)
Magnaflow Catted X
Trueflow Upper
Underdrive pullies
4:10 gears

The car already has a Magnaflow catback and CIA. I'm a contractor and have a family, I don't have the time to do one at a time so everthings going together in one weekend. Who would you reccomend to burn the chip and can I expect to get it right the first time? Thanks

The only things on the list that could require a chip/tune are the cams. I'm not sure how wild those cams are, but more aggressive grinds can have an effect on idle, among other things. If they are reasonably mild, you may want to install them (with your other mods), check the driveability and put the car on a dyno with a wideband O2 to check the a/f.

Catted X Pipe, U/D pullies, upper plenum - don't require a chip.
4.10's - a chip can be used to calibrate the speedo/odometer or a speedcal could be used.
