What's the deal with "no towing with a hi-perf computer? I had a '94 RAM 5.2L
with the hi-performance computer and towed a 4300lb travel trailer lots of times
with no problem.

The reason I mentioned long distances was b/c of having to run 93 octane,
thats all. I've put thousands of miles on my MP SBEC, and drive from St.Louis
to North carolina with it all the time. It would be nice to be able to switch
out, and save .20$ per gallon. (I can't, 'cause the stock comp. pings anyway,
but other's might.) You can easily make that $100 back with a few good long
trips on the stock computer.....lets see..at 17mpg you'd have to drive 8500
miles with the stock comp switched in to save $100.....well, lots of big
trips.
Later (if this post seems incoherent, please note the fact that it was sent
before noon...not my 'prime time')
