You can buy a mega squirt design for your neon plugs into the orginal harness I think the only extra at the computer is a vac line for the map sensor. 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

Why do you think the mileage would become worse than it was prior to being a turbo? (other than keeping your foot in it more)






BECAUSE the turbo cars are set-up to run BESTest with boost .... I have had many 2.2 cars with turbos and NOT.... and the MPG on a non-turbo car is much better.

Now the fun-factor ? ...can't argue with that. I had a GLH ...that was a tonsOfun.

What's the chances that the clutch, transaxle, and axles will take the extra strain for very long?


Master, again and still

I was told that if I kept it under 8psi boost I could run the stock ECU. 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
