pretty sure you can but 93's respond to mods better from what i understand. All you need is a good tuner.

if you get tunercat you can change the tables yourself. Then burn the new tables into your chip.There are more programs but that is the only one i can remember.

I had my 93 T/A converted to mass air.....you'll need a 94+ computer and wiring harness.

I'm also wondering that. I have a 93 also. I have access to EFI live tuning, but they don't do 93s. I could get tunercats and the items needed to burn chips, but the cost might be the same as upgrading to a different PCM. That combined with the fact the new PCMs are much more robust makes this a difficult decision.

I like TunerPro. I can send you my tune, but it's nothing special. Just improved stock, but a noticeable change. EGR/AIR removed though.
