Ok Thanks agian. I guess I need to think more about turbo. Its good to know that the 4g64 is a bored out 4g63. I take it the head/cam is different as well.

I thought about doing some porting and so on, but if I'm fighting a loosing battle without boost, I'll give the thought some time.

The car is a kick to drive. True its not the fastest thing I've owned, but with the top down speed is not as important. Oh yeah, the local police pulled me over running faster that I should have been. When the guy saw me, he grinned called me by name, and gave me a good tounge lashing. I figured I was pretty safe at 4:30 in the morning. Worse yet, my 15 yold daughter was sitting next to me. (She had a band trip to make, and we were running late.)

Thanks for the advice. Oh, yeah, the primer's and tuning section is great reading. That is the best explanation of ECM's I've seen yet. I do controls for a living, and it was great to see something written at that level :t
