    Honestly I'd convert to a 94+ PCM at the very least... being on a 93 PCM is your biggest albatross for tuning. Most people don't want to deal with having to flash the chips for the 93.

    Thats a very good point that I didn't think about. Ray@NitroDaves.com would you know how to get in touch In touch with Moe? I did a little searching all night longand read that Moe does dyno tunes at DC Motorsports which is next to NitroDave’s.I’m assuming that you would have a connection to him. Would you be willing toPM me his information or how to get in touch with him? I wouldn’t mind travelingout there at all. I have a vacation at the end of the month anyway and will be planningto go to College Station anyway. Man, if I could get my car tuned and go outthere for fun it that would be AWESOME!

    What would I need to do for this conversion? I haven’t done my homework on it and I like to know what all I would need to do and the roundabout cost?

    Honestly I'm not 100% sure... You'd need a MAF (unless you just tune it out, which you can easily do with a 94+ PCM since you don't have to flash chips for each tune), the 94+ PCM, and maybe the 94+ wiring harness. I'm not sure what the wiring differences are between 93 and 94+ for the engine harness, so it might be as easy as just buying a PCM and having it flashed to run SD.

    You will need the wiringharness and the PCM to convert, along with a MAF sensor. I just did this with my other bolt on Firebird. It's a 93 but converted it to a 94 setup. It plugs right in place under the hood and inside the car.

    I will really consider this. First, I need to find out if anyone can tune a 94 around me.

    LOL! Oh, and my optispark went out. It went out the other day, because of the water pump leaking on it. Thats the first time it has gone out on me in the 8yrs I have owned the car.
    I think I'm going to go the 24x route now that I know I can use my trans. The way I'm thinking is instead of putting money back into the opti and still being in the same predicament as I'm in now. Instead I will use the money to get rid of the weak link, opti, and be able to find someone to tune it here in Houston. If I don't go the 94 route.
