Help with large format printing

Hello Artists!
I have my very first Art installation coming up at a trendy local restaurant. I am getting prints made of some of my digital art and wacom scribblings. I'm looking for some information on Large Format Printing. (Eg, printing on canvas or vinyl)
I work at 400 ppi, is that enough resolution? Will my prints be blurry? The average document size is about 1.5 gig. I want large pieces, like 24x48 at least.
I am sorta broke, and the printing places want a lot for the prints - should I go with canvas and then nail it to a frame or should i print vinyl and then mount it? What are the aesthetic differences between printing on vinyl and canvas?
If anyone has any wisdom they can share, I would appreciate it.
