    So im coming up on the order date for a complete engine rebuild, which will include some JE Forged pistons and the works. One of my last questions/ recommendations is whether to go with the FWD performance H-beam rod set or the TU Rods. Both appear to be perfectly fine what what im going for...

  6. Engine Mgmt., Fuel, Spark, EGTs, & Air/Fuel Ratios
    Hey, Ive got a 92 Daytona engine that takes about 5 seconds of cranking to get it to start up. If the engine is warm, it may stutter for a few seconds, or start immediately depending.

    If I put a turbo on my Dakota, what will I need to do to the computer? If I but a boost control will that be on its own, or will it need to be tied into the factory computer? Same question with air/ fuel ratio controller? I'm thinking of putting a TD04 turbo on my little 2.5 Dakota.
