hey dude how you goin?, i am actually doin this conversion at the moment and i found out that the 2.6L and 2.3L rodeo manifolds fit on, what you will need if you are hooking up a supercharger you will need a fuel and ignition aftermarket computer prefferably a wolf 3d or if you can find a secondhand one it would be better, but they are petty expensive. if you are getting the standard computer get a computer off a late model camira like an 88 model with the map sensor, so you can retune for boost, this is all i can really help you with at the moment but i hope it helps if you have anything tht can help me i would like you to let me know or add me to your msn my email is i_love_fat_chix@hotmail.com

Microtech is the cheapest but also the shitiest (my opinion). Wolf 3d ver 4 is around $1500 brand new. Personally I would go for a Haltech E6X - much finer resolution and the ability to run a 4 cyl in full sequential mode. |

Rdigecrest engineering in vic. I have one to suit a G200 at home (in brizzy) they can be re-annealed and re-used if you're interested. |

exactly right gene, not all cops are stoopid, sure u might get one or 2 who dont even look, but most cops are aware of any extra "out of place" hoses. _________________
