If I ever have the opportunity to meet Criss Angel, I would ask if all the stunts he performs are real, or an illusion. My one request, to teach me to levitate.

1. If I had the opportunity to meet Criss, I would ask him if all the stunts he performs are real or an illusion.
2. I would also ask him to teach me to levitate. Would be the correct sentence. (no commas but get rid of "request"; it's not used appropriately in this sentence.)

If I had the opportunity to meet Criss, I would ask him if all the stunts he performs are real or an illusion. I would, also, ask him to teach me to levitate. (you could use ask or request) To help you learn comma placement, anywhere you stop and take a breath while reading, insert a comma. A comma is like giving your sentence a little "lunch" break. Also, if you think the sentence is going on too long, commas can break it up some. Largely, comma placement is up to you as a writer, but there are some times when it is required, such as, when things are in a list.

If I had the opportunity to meet Criss, I would ask him if all of the stunts he perfoms are real or just an illusion. I would also request him to teach me to levitate.

AFTER CRISS (It's an Introductory Clause)
ALSO: You don't need both request and ask; request is fine

"If I had the opportunity to meet Criss(1) I would ask him if all the stunts he performs are real or an illusion. I would also ask request(2) him to teach me to levitate."
1. Do you mean Christ? Needs a comma there.
2. You don't need "request" in there.

One comma and remove request.

If I had the opportunity to meet Crisis , [<--comma there] I would ask him if all the students he performs are real or an illusion. I would also ask/request [ask & request mean the same thing, do not use both] him to teach me to levitate. [no comma in last sentence]

If I had the opportunity to meet Chriss, I would ask him if all the stunts that he performs are real, or an illusion. I would also ask him to teach me how to levitate."
request sounded unnatural, it's better to write how you actually talk
there's the commas, but the first sentence would sound clearer to me if it were written like this:
"If I had the opportunity to meet Chriss, I would ask him if he uses real magic or illusions to perform his stunts."
spellchecked - everthing went through except chriss!
