It's going into a Porsche 911, being turbocharged, behind a G50 trans.
Emissions requirements are not a concern.

No plans to retain ANYTHING on the Infiniti engine that's not the
"longblock", cause I don't have anything that's not metal.  (Block, heads,
manifolds, brackets)

Well, I was at Hypertech for 2 years and everybody pretty much works on
current-model-year stuff, just to keep up the new product development.  I
didn't touch anything earlier than a 94 model the whole time I was there...

Plus, the product is so confined to the computer and its ROM, that a
complete understanding of the other vehicle systems on the "test cars" is
purely incedental knowledge, unless driven to learn more for special
projects or applications (such as this one).

Any other info on how the ECM/Coil/HEI Module/distributor system works on
TPI-type setups?  (Signal inputs and outputs)  

Also, any good sources in mind to get these GM TPI parts for a low price?
