Default ECU swap?

I've got a 91 STD and was wondering if swapping the ecu out and removing the restrictor plate would be worth the time? Would my shitty 70hp engine like it?
P.S. dont suggest a MPFI swap because I dont have $250!

I guess you could take out that little plate thing, don't know how much more air that will allow in. Swapping ecu's would be useless. The only ecu you could swap it with would be a DX ecu, not worth the trouble.
STD + budget below $250= tough times
BTW I think you could do the MPFI swap for under $200.
