Does anyone know if there is a product available or a modification that can be done to the ECU or related wiring, to improve performance HP/Torque wise? Not concerned at all with gas mileage, just want to go out on the track show all the japanese/american 4 cyl's what the brick can do. Bought the lowering springs from FCP Groton to help the car rotate better through the corners, by benefit of lower center of gravity, looking to see what mod's I can make to ECU, Fuel Injection, to increase power to the rear wheels.

    1985 244 B230F w/LH Jetronic 2.4 upgraded to a "K" cam, not allowed to run a VX cam, have to find more discreet ways to get a result ;), currently using an AW71, but have an M46 to convert to.

    I don't think you're gonna get much benefit from any mods as long as your engine remains stock at North American specs- "F" low-compression engine, and a crappy "M" grind stock camshaft.

    Spend the money on a VX cam, maybe an adjustable gear, and then look for the other bottlenecks in the system.
