Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Leading evidence: 'Check cost' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Check cost' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

Suggestion
I think the biggest advantages come from changes that you probably don't want for a street car like running 100 octane.

I mean, you could add additional injectors, ***** around with timing, maybe run a speed/density setup?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I'm not sure wat the capabilities of the stock system are, but if it was to be replaced with a fully customisable race ecu, would there be more options and ways to extract power?
I mean, you could add additional injectors, ***** around with timing, maybe run a speed/density setup? i dunno..i 'm just throwing idea's out there at random.
Your thoughts?
You could make it pass emissions. Two problems though. First a Motec starts at about $8k. Second, your ecu manages other aspects of your car (security, etc) that the Motec won't. Unless I'm mistaken you would also loose some of the real time safegaurds you have in the factory unit. Like adjustments for octane, etc.
It's my understanding that most of the Grand Am guys manage their 996s with Motecs. I would but it's against PCA stock rules.
Jim
I hear there's quite a bit of power to be had with the Motec in a racing enviroment. I won't quote the numbers but they were, shall we say, very impressive.
Dead,
If you are really interested you should double check the cost. That's just the number I heard. Like I said, I can't do it in PCA stock so I haven't looked into it too much.
I think the biggest advantages come from changes that you probably don't want for a street car like running 100 octane.
Jim
heheh.having a special 100 octane program thats switchable for going back to 94 for daily driving would be awsome.
hey is it true that sunoco in the states stopped selling 94 octane at most of its pumps?
I will let you into a well know fact about race cars. If you change out your ECU be prepared to just open your wallet. That will be the least expensive part of the project.
