I am looking into just modding my N/A 2.3 and I was wondering what I should do about the computers. If I use my stock one, what extent would I have to go to in order to get it to run ok with a turbo?? Or will an LA3 or other TC EEC work ok with the stock wiring set up, apart from repinning?? I am probably only going to run around 8psi now with stock pistons, but I want to eventually run it with more after I add forged pistons/cranks. Is there a benefit of running a turbo setup on a dual plug car?? I know the horsepower ratings between the mass air flow cars and MAF cars is 17HP, so would that benefit me in the end with the turbo? One last question, is there a website that I can go to to find a TC computer?? I have searched the junkyards around my house plenty of times for a TC but I haven't had any luck. Thanks for everyones imput.

thanks guys, i didn't realize that turboford had that many people selling computers. i am still wondering if i can just replace my computer in my 93 and then repin it if everything will work ok??

Sounds to me you should do ALOT more research before attempting...there is more to using an LA3 in your 93 than just repinning...see my site below.
