Re: Newbie questions
Hi Ray....welcome to the forum. I purchased a '90 about 2 years ago and it had a DRM chip. I had Marc Haibeck put his chip in last summer and re-tuned to his specifications. Got me another 10 rwhp. It also came with Power Effects exhaust which I believe are not made any more. These are the only power modifications made to date. Thinking about having Marc port and polish and maybe adding headers in the future. The 8K - 10K price is probably correct but I think you should probably be in the neighborhood of 390-400 rwhp. The car runs the dyno at 355-365 rwhp depending on the conditions. Very happy with the simple mods I have now. I would find it hard to justify to the wife if I wanted to go the more expensive (20K-40K) modifications. I don't do any track racing - just street stuff. By the way, when I purchased my ride it had 52M and most of the issues had been fixed by the previous owner. Good luck and take your time. There are many excellent cars to be had. I waited 2 years to find the color combination I wanted.
