It is my understanding that my system is one that used a factory EEC, however they had to change the injector size and maf size and maybe some more things.

I agree the maf location is a poor location. In addition to the location, a single plane intake with a big cam is huffing and puffing both directions. My first problem was the intake gaskets were sucking in oil. The oil got on the maf, hp was down bellow 300, by my pants. When I cleaned the oil off the maf there was a huge improvement. Although I have to admit, once in closed loop, driveability is great. The maf does not look like a factory set up. It looks more like multiple hot wire anomometers in one piece. Maybe that is the key.

I checked the web sites, but I didn't find a price for the tweecer. Buy the time I purchase the tweecer, wide band O2, and a good book on tuning, I will be well past the price of a dyno tune, and chip installed. If I was certain I was dealing with someone who really knows their stuff that would be a know brainer for me. Your point on getting it completely set up takes more time than it will see on the dyno, concerns me. What concerns me the most is an agressive tune that is too close to detonation and one warm day or slightly low octain and poof -- time for another engine. Of course learning to tune it myself could cause harm, as well.

Thanks for the info.
