By the way, you have a wideband O2 sensor on her don't you?

ya wideband. its a full standalone computer, usb port. every sensor is new.only 80s technology is the frame/mechanical part of the motor. converted to distributorless ignition. 100% modern technology, on a 80s engine. it's pretty quick. i datalogged everything.. it's easily a high 12sec car right now. on the lowest boost setting ;-), since ur in chicago maybe u'll get a ride one day.
