Why not give the MPFI swap a try.

not sure i want to do that. i'm pretty sure i'll get a ZC, so i don't want to waste money on mpfi swap. i figured i'll just start with simple bolt-ons on the 1.5 till i can muster the cash for the ZC, then transfer the bolt-ons over. but still not sure on anything...

how the hell do you figure that?! there's no way i can get a distributor, intake manifold, ECU, resistor box, and injector harness for around 100 bux. LOCASH has the ECU i need (90 EX AUTO) for 150 ALONE. even if i find a auto PG7, it's gonna be around 100 itself most likely. and junkyards want no less than 80 for a distributor.

Re: Mini Me Swap:

IM Sabastian. I just sold him my old HF motor and it had MPFI. Hes still got the harness, intake manifold, injectors, fuel rail, everything for a MPFI swap. Im almost certain he'd sell it cheap.
