Woot! Sorry that ECU wasn't what I was thinking it was. Good luck on the hunt. Is this thing getting a pink fuel rail?

Re: the wifes (Ali's) new car 89 mirage turbo
By the way, the driver's side tail light is out (both of them, since it looks like two bulbs), but brake filaments still work. Don't know if you knew, but I figured I'd let you know.

Re: the wifes (Ali's) new car 89 mirage turbo
Wow, looks good. I didn't even see the thread until now. Looks like a lot of work to turn it into a NA. I have/had just about all the parts to make around 700whp for it. I just got tired of it sitting here and wasn't motivated to work on it. It is too bad nobody wanted or was able to complete it. Why did you swap it over to 5 lug wheels? Needed to go NA? I think I liked the other wheels better but you can sell the ones that were on it to some of the colt guys.
