Don't bother with that IC, it's a waste of time. You can tune without a SAFC, but we'll just say the methods are old skool and probably hard to find these days. I'd actually pick up a VPC now that they are so cheap. That's still my favorite although DSMlink isn't much more now. Even easier would be a simple chipped ECU. I've still got an original TMO chip with all the goodies including stutterbox and theft that I'd sell for $50. You just need an eprom ecu that is socketed. That is the simplest way period.

Yep, exhaust is most important, stock is really restrictive. Actually, this book should be your very first step. It answers all the questions you'll have for the next year or so.

A full exhaust should have been the very first mod, you usually do that before anything on a 1G.
That Conquest/Starion intercooler is a worthless pile.
You can get MBCs cheap, but you should get exhaust first, before creating a lot of backpressure with more boost.
Hacked MAF, get rid of it, not needed. Just asking for drivability issues there.(rough idle, etc)
A 14B can overrun the stock 1G MAS though.

I did until very recently on the 1G. Upgraded to a 2G MAS! A hacked 1G MAs probably tunes better than a MAFT. ;)
