Seriously, you have to read to even have somewhat of an idea of what is going on.

i dont think your ready for boost to be completely honest and i think others would agree.

you seem to have no clue as to what happens when boosting a car so ill give you 2 recomended options

get it done by a professional

get to reading

and for god sakes dont use a stuipd vafc to try and tune your car only thing those are good for is setting vtec.you will need to convert to obd1 if you havent already and get a chipped p28 or something similar to tune your car with.

1 more thing there is no "cheap ; inexpensive" and reliable way to boost a car

go to a library or somewhere that isnt as restricted as your school might be

not trying to sound harsh just the way it came out i guess

Agree, your nowhere near ready to to this. If you have $4000-5000. dollars to spend you can do it. People will tell you that you can do it for $1000.00 don't believe them. This is your first time. Do have tools? Do you have the know how? you always need to buy something else to get it to run right.

Stay in school get a good education, get a good job, then think about boost. It's not cheap trust me. If you like it, it will become an addiction worse then drugs. It last a life time, I'm 53 y/o.
