    you can go with a megasquirt unit for tuning, this will replace your ECM as well as delete the air meter which has a tendency to cause tuning issues for people. Not sure what your fuel mods are but you will need to upgrade the pump to support the fuel needs in addition to the injectors. Also what amount of boost do you plan on running? Also dependability will depend on what motor work you already have as well as the supporting mods you go with.

    Yes it will, and you will work on it about 4 times more than you do now, if thats cool you'll like the added power.

    LOL, only 4????

    As far as tuning, sooooo many options. You really need to define how far you want ot go and if you are comfortable with self tuning. Personally, I would jump to stand alone as everything else is a work around, but I'm already there ;)

    As was said above, Megaquirt is a great option as it's speed density and very easy to tune, especailly with Tuner Studio, but in reality you have to be VERY comfortable self tuning and taking that resposibilty.

    Contact Don Lasota for the tuning. He can tune it to be just as driveable as stock with the stock PCM. He did my 90 GT and have had zero issues.
