if this is the case you may be better off looking for a 'for sale' thread here on H-T or lookin for someone nearby parting out their setup

yeah, don't let the junkman *** rape you, cause they love to do it. and hey, it never hurts to low ball em right back. bullshit your way into a deal. they quote high, shoot em back low. they will deal, especially if the stuffs been there for a while. and believe me, you gotta check junkyards within an 50 to 75 mile radius. i put a lot of miles going to different yards to just see what they've got.

Do it the easy way. Get a complete z6 or y8 intake, ECU from ht or ebay and a distributer from distributor king.

I got my intake, fuel rail, injectors from a y8 on ebay for $70, ecu was another 75 I think and the distributor was around $200.

Only the 88-89 obd0 ecus are useless... Not worth the work to chip those suckers. Other than that... all the chippable obd0 ecus are very usefull
