Re: [B]Who burns 3rd Gen Proms?[/B]

About what would it cost to do a dyno tune to a stock programmed car? I have an 87 Iroc, 355, 10:1, Probably will have sportsman 2 heads, have .560/ .560 lift cam, HSR w/ 36 lb injectors, planning on a 125 shot of nitrous. Would I benifit more from a dyno tune as opposed to a mail order? Thanx for your help. Chris

You'd probally really like to get a dyno tune if possible. Theres a few people in your area interested in me coming up again. Would you like to get in touch with them?

Usually when I go up there people get dyno tunes for 250-300 with the dyno time

If I were to get a mail order chip, would I get a break on the dyno tune if you come up? I don't have that kind of money right now. I'm still collecting parts. Thanx. Chris

Awesome. Be sure to let me know if and when you come up this way. I'll probably be placing an order in the next few weeks.

Re: [B]Who burns 3rd Gen Proms?[/B]

Isn't the 87 a 165 computer with Mass Air? I believe that the MAF on these cars is a pretty big restriction. Also, the ALDL output on the 165 computer is very slow and it makes data gathering pretty painfull. A switch to a 730 computer gets you to a Speed Density system, with much higher baud rate on the ALDL output. The 730 is much more refined. That being said, I've seen a Vette with a 406 stroker motor running in the 10's with the 165 computer. Maybe Alvin has another twist on this.
