Will even be set up to run your ais and alt. DIYautotune sells them also a guy up here in Canada that makes them and puts in your sbec housing Dean Stillie 82 Rampage 2.4 litre turbo [Email]10.14@138.02[/Email] mph

But was also told to put SRT4 injectors in it. Im looking for a helping hand on this install. Bolting everything together and running the oil line to the pan in not hard but getting it to run right afterwords is where I need the help. I thank all of you guys for the info posted thus far. I will change my name when we hit the track this spring, since its 1/8th mile, I might be 8 sec Phill....LOL
