Re: Houston Area TBI ?????????

Get an EBL and dont waste time on the stock TBI stuff once u start modding it.

This is from experience, and I'm just telling u the facts.

Check out the DIY prom form and look up Rbobs EBL there and at dynamicefi.com

For what u pay for the ebl and installation will add up to barely more than the stuff needed to do it yourself.

Well thank you very much for your reply, but I am looking for a Houston area tuner (Shop) who can datalog, and tune my chip for me....I may in the future be interested in going the route you are talking about, but for now I am looking for a shop that does TBI work....As big as Houston is, there are bound to be places, but i've not found them..Thanks again....Tom

Re: Houston Area TBI ?????????

U will easily waste as much money on the stock flawed code as u will on the EBL.

Its already not stock, so fix all the problems at once.

This isnt being superior, its coming from someone who has been there and done that.

Ultimately it will save u time and trouble and give u a superior setup for better driveability.

For the chip, contact Mike--1bad91z-- try sending him a pm thru the board.

For the dyno--ARD is about the only shop in Hou that is "thirdgen friendly", and has a very nice dyno.

From I-10 and highway 6, go north past Keith Harrow till you reach Addicks Satsuma. Take a right turn and go about 100 yards down, and you will see the sign and it is located on the left in a business park.
