For the price you going to spend on an R ecu on eBay why not get a white tune from lucky?

If I go that route I'm going to get the GREEN tune from Lucky. That would be much better than a WHITE tune.

already looks like you have some decent mods on your car, for the money a green tune would be right up your alley considering how much people want for stock ECU's at junkyards and on eBay

Yes it would, but if your looking for an R ecu which you stated, just go with the white for now... then Re tune to the green later, or even better do some timing work and a K24 and go BLUE!! :ph34r:

I just fixed my ecu. So my car is now running. I think that I will get with Lucky and have him make a GREEN tune ECU. People just want way to much for a stock R ECU. I think with everything that I have done to my car a GREEN tune will work pretty good that is until I build an engine for a BLACK tune.

How hard is it to install the N/A cams? Do you have to do any mods to make them work? How much better are they than the stock cams?

93 N/A's have the highest lift, just put them in like regular cams, set the timing and you can run them just like that....
then to get the biggest bang for your buck, get the cams adjusted... you will be really pleased.

What do you mean get the cams adjusted, are you talking about advance or retard the cam sprockets? What else would be good to do? like intake manifold, or throttle body?

for the intake manifold you can use a N/A intake manifold, just make sure to port and you'll be fine. also, you can use a N/A throttle body with a 960 throttle plate to really open everything up.


that or get a racing labs plenum intake for $1300 lol
