Jay, yes I still have that tune!  It's on my other laptop that's still in 
the states.  When I get back from Holland I will e-mail it to you, and/or 
burn a chip.  Any of the 2732 chips will work as long as they are still good 
enough to erase and program over.

That will be one BAD corvair with a LG3 turbo engine!!!!

David
