I am familiar with the stalling issue on some pre OBD2 cars. I have used S.Wong chips before. Steve is more approacable about custom chipping. GIAC is a well known name in chips too sold by shops like Rennsport etc.

hmm, a little less definite w/ the shorter tires, tire size and speedo errors will account for the differences from theoretical
/20 @3k w/ 255/40x17 will be ~16, 31, 45, 56, 68, 81
/21 @3k w/ 255/40x17 will be ~16, 29, 40, 51, 61, 76

speeds @4k would be more definitive

Weak syncro on first was the biggest defect. I bought it more based on price (under 20K) than anything else.. I haven,t found any defects since that I missed, only good surprizes .
Sounds like you found a good car, regear or no .
