I'm open to hearing why this is a good, bad or marginal idea. The obvious answer is that this is silly because he's likely 99% there already based on how much data he has accumulated over the years.

The argument against that may be that why not get to 99.5%.

OMG, Steve! I LOVE that you just explained to "Dave" what SW can do. Too bad you couldn't understand it for him too!

I have a few decades worth of real world experience with off the shelf 3.2 chips (SW, Weltmeister, Superchips, Autothority, Sal Carceller, etc) in MANY different 3.2s. I've tried / run different MAF conversions too. The shop I worked at installed many Weltmeister 3.2 chips in-period. I've had numerous cars tuned on the dyno, including a pair of 3.2s. Steve Wong dyno tuned my former '88 3.2 and one of my current '87s, a 3.4, with his throttle body. Send me your number via DM if you'd like to discuss the particulars. Happy to discuss the objective and subjective, real-world, pros / cons / good / bad / marginal of all the above.
