MAP based or Alpha-N?
What ECU?

Haltech PS1000. Being naturally aspirated with ITB's and a big streetport I was advised against trying to use MAP although I have the provision for it. Getting this thing setup properly and tuned is the one task I fear the most. I don't even know where to start. I may have to take you up on the tuning offer. I'd just have to find a way to get the car to you.

I'm hoping it'll drive well enough for what it is and not be an on/off switch at 8000 RPM. Comfort-wise, it's basically a track car: no A/C, no heat, no radio, no P/S, next-to-no insulation, solid engine and transmission mounts, etc.
