    Frank, get a tune and forget about that unreliable pile of junk. I blew a motor two years ago cause of one of those pieces of garbage.

    What does SGS charge for a tune, Rob ?
    I got an estimate from Wolfpack for a tune and some other stuff. They said they really don't tune the 87-93 cars anymore but could probably get Lund to burn a chip for it off sight.

    I don't know what happened to the damn boost/retard box. My car died about 6 times in traffic in 3 days. I checked and rechecked everything I could think of but couldn't find a problem. As soon as I bypassed the MSD box, it never died again. Problem is, now I can hear some slight pinging when I get on it. I either have to manually retard the timing, get another MSD box, or get a tune.

    The tune could be a normal price or an expensive price, depends how involved they have to get.
