3.1cutlass Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 my question is why would he need obd II? They are listing it to work with Fieros. Im just not understanding why OBD II would have to be used. It would have to be tuned to run properly. His car is a 1995 which is OBD 1.5 which is NOT tuneable. That would be the reason to swap to OBD-II. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiderw31 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 my question is why would he need obd II? They are listing it to work with Fieros. Im just not understanding why OBD II would have to be used. If it is listed to work on a Fiero, then I would guess that a more accurate statement would be that he would need to convert to OBD2 or OBD1. Basically, lose the OBD1.5 so that it can be tuned. On the flip side, having never attempted a ECM conversion (yet), I'd bet that switching to OBD2 would be the more logical and easier swap for the OP since he has a '95.

Correct! the tuneability of OBD II is better as well, and if it matters, it is technically illegal to use older equipment on a newer car, so an OBD I swap would be out of the question if the car is ever inspected. Why not just go for an L67 swap????? or a totally built out 3100??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertISaar Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 because any type of 3800 exhaust sounds like total shit compared to a 60* motor. i say 3900, and if its really necessary, turbo [waits for shitstorm for saying 3800s sound horrible] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSI_MuNkY Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 I dunno about where you are, but around here the wreckers pull the L67s if they are any good. Just ask at your wreckers, chances are they are already pulled out. Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
