-98 still has MSA15.7 ECU that needs the 2xPLCC32 chips to be removed and replaced/reprogrammed.
A tuning box for these is almost invariably a resistor in a box (aka. Evry mod), which doesn't work nearly as well as a good remap does. Before considering a remap, I'd recommend checking the pump timing, since this has a noticeable effect on performance, and is often an issue on the old D5252T engines.

Watching with interest.
Where/who is able to do the 'proper' remap (i.e. not a 'box'), and roughly what is the cost and power gain available ?
