I don't believe there are any shops in the area that will still burn chips for older cars. You'll prolly have to either get the stuff and learn how to do it yourself, or find someone who doesn't mind helping out.

You might want to try sending a PM to 90FormulaWS6, I know he has experience tuning TBI cars....

I'm for familiar with TBIChips, so i cannot comment on them. I personally dealt with a local tuner in NJ and also a few national tuners and after losing allot of time and money went to Alvin and he is the best I've found!

http://www.PCMforless.com

But I will warn you Alvin is very busy right now so don't expect him to be able to do the work in 1-2 days, but Alvin does outstanding work! He isn't local so you may need to go mail order. But the crew from the speeddensity board are working on setting up a date for him to come to PA for dyno tuning that we hope will happen in the next month or two?

What I did was purchase just his tuning, but no hardware, I purchased all the equipment to burn my own chips. ( you can have him burn and mail you the chip as well which would cost less ) His first turn was off a bit at idle and too rich at WOT, I sent him a data log and a copy of the dyno pulls from TTP and he fixed everything! Now when I need a change I can send Alvin a data log or tell him what changes I want and he simply sends me a new file. I waste no time or money mailing chips back and fourth. Eventually I want to start tuning my own car.

If you want to investiage chip burning all the equipment you'll need can be purchased from Moates
