you aren't going to get much out of a tune but you can get an SAFCII. or you can get a Venom 400 chip. basically once you get to 25% throttle it goes from stock tune to the most agressive tune you can get out of it. i have it and there's definately a difference. i'm actually selling mine if you are intersted in it.

hmmm......just as i suspected. why are you selling the venom? it pretty much just tricks the computer right? how much ?

it doesn't "trick" the computer, it simply changes the timing, it tells the computer don't use this timing... use THIS timing. i'm selling it because i'm about to turbo my car and if i run my turbo with that timing on my car i'll end up with a very bad ride. it goes in stores for about 300 i'll sell mine for 200

Since the general consensus is that the 420a is slow-*** engine that needs turbo to be worth a damn, what is a good turbo kit that can be put in and at what approximate cost?

Is this true, is it goin to be a waste of 300 bucks if I buy one?
