tuning obd 1 is very available and is used quite a bit just not with GM's FWD cars. Tuning OBD 1 can be easier because you can tune while you drive if you emulate.

Boy that fiero sure looked slick under the hood. Very beautifull. And i have more room to play with so i should be fine as far as space goes. That looks really nice. He did a very nice job on that engine. it looks like he did it pretty similar to what i want to do. Must sound really nice. Thanks for that link it was insightfull.

I didn't read into it much, but I did notice he has an Aeroforce gauge... how is he running that off a 1.5 setup?

He's not OBD1.5. I did a little more reading and realized that's not Ryan from Sinister Performance's personal car. He's been running a similar setup for 5 years or so on OBD1.5 w/out issue.

It's all a matter of opinion if it's worth it or not.
A properly sized turbo would be more efficient, easier, cheaper, and wouldn't really need anything to help you off the line.

In the new CarCraft I just got in the mail, there is an article on Turboing any engine. They have some good general tech points about doing a turbo. One thing that sticks in my mind is they say not to use junkyard turbos due to the technology advances in the past couple years for aftermarket units as compared to stuff youd find factory.
