only thing you can rub obd0 is turboedit... unless you want to convert to obd1

Yeah Zdyne is what I run ... works good made 500whp and the car will go deep 10's (Now that I will have a cage hahaha). Zydne is actually real cheap now 300 or something and works real good and its easy as all hell to tune.

Zdyne Gold can be anything you want .. its just like hondata use it on any ODB0 car. But it you have a zdyne silver which is just a chip burn than no it really isnt worth using.

this is a little scary, are you driving it that way?
also the parallel turbos on a vr-4 are the same size (tiny, trying to squeeze 9lbs out of one is going to be hard/imposible near your redline), so i wonder what you mean by "the big turbo", most v6s use parallel turbos of the same size, like the skyline. the logic is two smaller turbos spool faster than one big one. sequential turbo systems (one bigger one smaller) are less common, like the mk4 supra.

Zdyne gold has what looks like a phone jack on the front cover .. thats how it connects directly to a laptop to tune on the fly (no chip burning) Also should say Zdyne in gold lettering on the front cover plate.
