They discontinued the removable e-prom in '94, so you can't put a new "chip" in it...very common misconception, and you will prob. have a disgusting amount of people telling you to put a new chip in it for as long as you own the car. Ok I'm done w/ that rant!

Cold air induction kit, and a good cat-back are good starts.

Do a search, you will find alot of topics about it.

Yes, LT1 Edit and Tunercat are the popular ones. You need to buy the software and have a laptop (or computer w/ a long cable).
