Hi Randall,

Thanks for the info on TBI --- I'll be interested to hear someone's
experience on a TR!

Ahhhh, "Bang for the Buck" is just what I'm looking for.
I'd like to hear opinions on the most cost-effective way to convert a stock
setup to ~150Hp for street use. (I don't plan to campaign the car, but I
would be interested in more "umph." I'm currently exempt from smog tests,
but I wouldn't want to make a lot of emissions.)
AFAIK there are several camps re: more Hp
- increased compression and hotter cam only
- force feeding (turbo/supercharger)
- PI (fuel injection on this side of the pond)
- V8 engine swap
What are the relative costs vs. performance improvements? Any one willing
to take a stand?
As always, TIA,
