Ok here's the deal. I put a DSS 331 probullet in my car. It has an X303 cam, trick flow heads, Edlebrock Performer RPM II, BBK throttle body, granitelli 30lb MAF, and 30lb injectors. I also installed a T-56 so I don't have to worry about that. Since everything has been in and working I haven't been able to get it to idle correctly. It will idle for a little bit, then the idle makes a violent change, sometimes up, sometimes down, and it's jumped ov 2000 RPM some times.

It still has the stock computer and I've heard that the computer in 94-95's don't like radical cams and that I should just go with a conversion kit to a 93 computer. Then if I want to add a custom tuner after that it's fine or should I just get a laptop and tuner for my car with the 95 computer in it?

The 93-older computers are slow compared to the 94/95 processors(sp?). They (93-older) are however more accepting to big lift cams, but since you have to get a tune anyway there is zero need to swap out computers. You would be wasting money be doing so, just get a tune when you can.
