ok i have had my 86 eta for a bit now and im wanting to do some standard eta mods. i have done alot of research and i think i have come up with somthing but i would like some input.
first is a turner chip,im ordering that tomorrow,everyone says its the best bang for the buck and i can see why that would be. not cause i think it will give me 24hp like they say,but i like the fact that the stair step power goes away and suppose to make more even power up to around 5100. mine falls of around 4.
seccond is i have read that a 323 head on eta bottom end with a 272 gives favorable results,but i have yet to find a clear answer on that.
and third i want to do the 1.3 upgrade witch i have read at length about.
i know that the chip will no longer be usable with the 1.3 upgrade,but that will be in the future,prolly about a year from now. i feel like 200$ for that amount of time is a good investment.
but can i use the chip with the 232 head? and what will the chip do if i add a 272 cam? i know they say you should have a chip for your engine set-up...and yes i know that would be optimal,but wouldnt it still run well if not being 100% ideal?
other than that,im going H&R sports and springs,urithane subframe bushings. and some nice pads. this is a daily car and i know im not going to be blowing the doors off of STi's. i just want it to skoot along.
